“anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,”
“intends,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,”
“project,” “should,” “will,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking
statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this

Actual events or results
may differ from those expressed in forward-looking statements. You should not rely on forward-looking statements as predictions of future
events. We have based the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q primarily on our current expectations and
projections about future events and trends that may affect our business, financial condition and operating results. The outcome of the
events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors described in the section titled
“Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly
changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time, and we cannot predict all risks and uncertainties that could
impact the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The results, events and circumstances reflected
in the forward-looking statements may not be achieved or occur, and actual results, events or circumstances could differ materially from
those described in the forward-looking statements.
In addition, statements
that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based
on information available to us as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. While we believe that information provides a reasonable
basis for these statements, that information may be limited or incomplete. Our statements should not be read to indicate that we have
conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors
are cautioned not to unduly rely on these statements.
The forward-looking
statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q relate only to events as of the date the statements are made. We undertake no obligation
to update any forward-looking statements made in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect events or circumstances after the date
of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or to reflect new information or the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by
law. We may not achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements, and you should not place undue
reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of future acquisitions,
mergers, dispositions, joint ventures or investments.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated
Financial Statements
(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.
6
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.

(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) :
As of

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.
8
(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:
Step
1. Identification
of the contract(s) with a customer;
Step
2. Identification
of the performance obligations in the contracts(s);
Step
3. Determination
of the transaction price;
Step
4. Allocation of
the transaction price to the performance obligations;
Step
5. Recognition of
the revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.
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:
●
Cash agreements
– The Company contracts directly with homeowners who purchase the solar energy system and related services from the Company.
Customers are invoiced on a billing schedule, where the majority of the transaction price is due upon installation with an additional
payment due when the system passes inspection by the authority having jurisdiction.
●
Financing partner agreements
– In its financing partner agreements, the Company contracts directly with homeowners for the purchase of the solar energy
system and related services. The Company refers the homeowner to a financing partner to finance the system, and the homeowner makes
payments directly to the financing partner. The Company receives consideration from the financing partner on a billing schedule where
the majority of the transaction price is due upon installation with an additional payment due when the system passes inspection by
the authority having jurisdiction.
●
Power purchase agreements
and lease agreements – The Company contracts directly with a leasing partner to perform the solar energy system installation,
and the homeowner will finance the system through a power purchase agreement (or lease), which is signed with the Company’s
leasing partner. The Company considers the leasing partner to be its customer, as the Company does not contract directly with the
homeowner and the leasing partner takes ownership of the system upon the completion of installation. The Company receives consideration
from the leasing partner on a billing schedule where the majority of the transaction price is due upon installation with an additional
payment due when the system passes inspection by the authority having jurisdiction.
9
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:
●
Cash agreements
– The Company contracts directly with homebuilders who purchase the solar energy system from the Company and are the customers
in the transaction. The Company’s customers are invoiced upon the completion of installation.
●
Lease agreements
– Prior to SunPower Corporation’s declaration of bankruptcy, certain homeowners had intended to lease a system from the
SunPower Corporation but were unable to consummate the transaction (as a result of SunPower’s declaration of bankruptcy). The
in-process system inventory (installed on recently constructed homes) was acquired by the Company in connection with the SunPower
Acquisition. The Company contracted directly with a leasing partner to facilitate the leasing of the system to the impacted homeowners.
The Company considers the leasing partner to be its customer. Under the terms of the Company’s arrangement with the leasing
partner, control is not transferred to the customer until the completed system is accepted by the customer. The Company receives
consideration from the leasing partner following the acceptance of the system.
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.

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.
11
(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.
12
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) :

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.

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.
19
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 .
At the July 1, 2024, modification date, the Carlyle Warrant had a fair value of $ 7.3 million, and the Company recognized $ 0.7 million
of expense related to the remeasurement of the liability which was classified within “Gain on Troubled Debt Restructuring”
within the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss in its fiscal 2024 consolidated results. The modification
of the Carlyle Warrant also resulted in the reclassification of the Carlyle Warrant from liability to equity classification, resulting
in an increase to additional paid-in capital of $ 7.3 million and a reduction in the warrant liability of $ 7.3 million.
Carlyle exercised the warrant for shares of the
Company’s common stock in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024.

to Carlyle which was also deemed to be a related party at the date of the exchange. During the thirteen week period ended June 29, 2025,
Carlyle was no longer deemed a related party with the Company. Refer to Note 2 (h) – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
– “ Changes in related parties ” for details. The July 2024 Notes bear interest at 12 % per annum, and the principal
is payable in full at maturity on July 1, 2029 . The interest is payable in cash on January 1 and July 1 of each year, beginning on July
1, 2025. The interest rate increases by 3 % in the event of default. The July 2024 Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s
common stock at the option of the holder at a conversion rate of $ 1.68 per share. Holders of the July 2024 Notes may convert at any time.
The July 2024 Notes may be declared due and payable at the option of the holder upon an event of default and upon a qualifying change
of control event. The conversion option was required to be bifurcated as a derivative liability, and the Company recorded an initial derivative
liability of $ 28.7 million on the issuance date with a corresponding debt discount.
In connection with the issuance of the July 2024
Notes, the Company issued the Cantor Warrant, as described in Note 8 – Capital Stock, to purchase shares of the Company’s
common stock. At issuance, the Cantor Warrant had a fair value of $ 1.4 million, of which $ 0.9 million was recorded as a debt discount,
and $ 0.5 million was included in the calculation of the Company’s gain on the troubled debt restructuring as further described
below in the Exchange Agreement . The effective interest rate is 33.4 % and 31.7 % on the July 2024 Notes’ principal amounts
of $ 28.0 million and $ 18.0 million, respectively.
21
There are no financial covenants. The July 2024
Notes are not in default. However, due to the Company’s delayed filing of its Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2024, the
Company was required to accrue incremental interest of 0.5 % beginning April 16, 2025 through April 30, 2025, the date upon which the

Exchange agreement
On July 1, 2024, the Company entered into an Exchange Agreement (the
“Exchange Agreement”) with Carlyle, which was deemed to be a related party beginning in fiscal 2024 and ended as of March
30, 2025 as described in Note 2 (h) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Changes in related parties , and Kline Hill
(as defined below) providing for:
(i) the
cancellation of all indebtedness, inclusive of the CS Solis Debt, owed to Carlyle by the Company, termination of all debt instruments
by and between the Company and Carlyle (through the transfer of Carlyle’s interest in CS Solis, LLC, to the Company), and the satisfaction
of all obligations owed to Carlyle by the Company under the terminated debt instruments;
(ii) the
issuance of a note for the principal amount of $ 10.0 million to Carlyle as part of the July 2024 Notes;
(iii) the
cancellation of all indebtedness owed to Kline Hill Partners Fund LP, Kline Hill Partners IV SPV LLC, and Kline Hill Partners Opportunity
IV SPV, LLC (collectively “Kline Hill”). by the Company, termination of all debt instruments by and between the Company and
Kline Hill, including the 2018 Bridge Notes, the revolving loan and the Secured Credit Facility (defined below), and the satisfaction
of all obligations owed to Kline Hill by the Company under the terminated debt instruments;
(iv) the
issuance of a note for the principal amount of $ 8.0 million to Kline Hill as part of the July 2024 Notes; and
(v) the
issuance of 1,500,000 shares of common stock, par value $ 0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) to Kline Hill
(the “Shares”).
At the date of the cancellation under the Exchange
Agreement, the Company’s indebtedness to CS Solis was $ 37.2 million and the indebtedness to Kline Hill was comprised of the 2018
Bridge Notes of $ 11.7 million, Revolving Loan balance assigned to Kline Hill of $ 3.9 million, and the Secured Credit Facility balance
of $ 13.1 million.
The Company concluded that the transactions entered
into in the Exchange Agreement represented a troubled debt restructuring as the Company was experiencing financial difficulty, and the
new terms of the July 2024 Notes resulted in a concession to the Company. As the carrying amount of the debt exceeded the future undiscounted
cash payments under the new terms on the date of the exchange, the Company recorded a gain on the troubled debt restructuring of $ 19.8
million in the thirteen week period ended September 29, 2024 and an additional $ 2.5 million gain in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024
for an aggregate gain of $ 22.3 million in fiscal 2024.
Debt in CS Solis
As part of the Reorganization described in Note 1(a) Organization –
Description of Business, the Company received cash and recorded debt for an investment by Carlyle. The investment was made pursuant to
a subscription agreement, under which Carlyle contributed $ 25.6 million in exchange for 100 Class B Membership Units of CS Solis and the
Company contributed the net assets of Complete Solar, Inc., in exchange for 100 Class A Membership Units. The Class B Membership Units
were mandatorily redeemable by the Company on the three-year anniversary of the effective date of the CS Solis amended and restated LLC
agreement (February 14, 2025). The Class B Membership Units accrued interest that was payable upon redemption at a rate of 10.5 % (which
was structured as a dividend payable based on 25 % of the investment amount measured quarterly), compounded annually, and subject to increases
in the event the Company declared any dividends. In connection with the investment by Carlyle, the Company issued to Carlyle a warrant
to purchase 5,978,960 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $ 0.01 per share, of which, the purchase of 4,132,513 shares
of the Company’s common stock was immediately exercisable. The Company accounted for the mandatorily redeemable investment from
Carlyle in accordance with ASC 480 and recorded the investment as a liability, which was accreted to its redemption value under the effective
interest method. The Company recorded the warrants as a discount to the liability.
24
On July 17 and July 18, 2023, and in connection with obtaining consent
for the Mergers, Legacy Complete Solaria, FACT and Carlyle entered into an Amended and Restated Consent to the Business Combination Agreement
(“Carlyle Debt Modification Agreement”) and an amended and restated warrant agreement (“Carlyle Warrant Amendment”),
which modified the terms of the mandatorily redeemable investment made by Carlyle in Legacy Complete Solaria. Refer to Note 8 –
Capital Stock for a description of the Carlyle Warrant Amendment. The Carlyle Debt Modification Agreement accelerated the redemption date
of the investment to March 31, 2024, subsequent to the modification. The acceleration of the redemption date of the investment resulted
in the total redemption amount to be 1.3 times the principal at December 31, 2023. The redemption amount increased to 1.4 times the original
investment as of March 31, 2024. At the date of the Exchange Agreement, the balance owed under this agreement was $ 37.2 million.
For the thirteen-week period ended June 30, 2024,
the Company recorded accretion of the liability as related party interest expense of $ 1.3 million, and made no payments of interest expense.
For the twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024, the Company recorded accretion of the liability as related party
interest expense of zero and $ 3.9 million, respectively, and made no payments of interest expense.
2018 bridge notes
The Company’s senior subordinated convertible
secured notes originally issued in 2018 (“2018 Notes”) were settled as part of the Exchange Agreement.
Interest expense recognized on the 2018 Notes
was zero and $ 0.4 million in the thirteen week periods ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. Interest expense recognized
on the 2018 Notes was zero and $ 0.7 million in the twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2025, and June 30, 2024, respectively.
Loan with related party
In October 2023, the Company entered into an Assignment
Agreement whereby Structural Capital Investments III, LP assigned its revolving loan (“Revolving Loan”) due from the Company
to Kline Hill and Rodgers Revocable Trust, a related party, for a total purchase price of $ 5.0 million. The Revolving Loan had an annual
interest rate equal to the greater of 7.75 % or Prime plus 4.5 %. In connection with the Exchange Agreement in July 2024, $ 3.5 million of
the Revolving Loan, plus accrued interest owed to Kline Hill, was exchanged for a portion of the July 2024 Notes. The principal balance
of $ 1.5 million owing to the Rodgers Revocable Trust (plus accrued interest) remained outstanding as of June 29, 2025, and December 29,
2024. There are no financial covenants.
Interest expense recognized on the Revolving Loan
was less than $ 0.1 million and $ 0.2 million in the thirteen week periods ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively. Interest
expense recognized on the Revolving Loan was $ 0.1 million and $ 0.4 million in the twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2025, and June
30, 2024, respectively.
Of the total interest expense recognized on the
Revolving Loan, related party interest expense recognized was less than $ 0.1 million in each of the thirteen week periods ended June 29,
2025 and June 30, 2024, and $ 0.1 million in each of the twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2025, and June 30, 2024.
Secured credit facility
The Company had a secured credit facility agreement
(“Secured Credit Facility”) with Kline Hill to borrow up to 70 % of the net amount of its eligible vendor purchase orders.
The repayment terms under the Secured Credit Facility were (i) the borrowed amount multiplied by 1.15x if repaid within 75 days and (ii)
the borrowed amount multiplied by 1.175x if repaid after 75 days. At the date of the Exchange Agreement, the balance owed under this secured
credit agreement was $ 13.1 million.
Interest expense recognized was zero and $ 0.4
million in the thirteen week periods ended June 29, 2025, and June 30, 2024, respectively. Interest expense recognized was zero and $ 1.0
million in the twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively.
25
(10) SAFE Agreements
First SAFE
On January 31, 2024, the Company entered into
a Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”) (the “First SAFE”) with the Rodgers Massey Freedom and Free Markets
Charitable Trust (the “Purchaser”), a related party, affiliated with Thurman J. Rodgers, the Company’s Chief Executive
Officer and a director, in connection with the Purchaser investing $1.5 million in the Company. The First SAFE did not accrue interest.
The First SAFE was initially convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, upon the closing
of a bona fide transaction or series of transactions with the principal purpose of raising capital, pursuant to which the Company would
have issued and sold shares of its common stock at a fixed valuation (an “Equity Financing”), at a per share conversion price
which was equal to the lower of (i) (a) $53.54 million divided by (b) the Company’s capitalization immediately prior to such Equity
Financing (such conversion price, the “SAFE Price”), and (ii) 80% of the price per share of its common stock sold in the Equity
Financing. If the Company consummated a change of control prior to the termination of the First SAFE, the Purchaser would have been automatically
entitled to receive a portion of the proceeds of such liquidity event equal to the greater of (i) $1.5 million and (ii) the amount payable
on the number of shares of common stock equal to (a) $1.5 million divided by (b)(1) $53.54 million divided by (2) the Company’s
capitalization immediately prior to such liquidity event (the “Liquidity Price”), subject to certain adjustments as set forth
in the First SAFE. The First SAFE was convertible into a maximum of 1,431,297 shares of the Company’s common stock, assuming a per
share conversion price of $1.05, which is the product of (i) $1.31, the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on
January 31, 2024, multiplied by (ii) 80%.
On April 21, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment (“First
SAFE Amendment”) that converted the First SAFE investment of $1.5 million into 4,166,667 shares of the Company’s common stock
based on a conversion price of $0.36 per share, defined in the First SAFE Amendment as the product of (i) $0.45, the closing price
of the Company’s common stock on April 19, 2024, multiplied by (ii) 80%. Upon conversion, the Company recorded a debit to the
First SAFE Agreement of $1.5 million, a credit to Additional paid-in-capital of $1.9 million and recognized expense of $0.4 million within
Other (expense) income, net in its unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations in the thirteen and twenty-six week periods
ended June 30, 2024.
Second SAFE
On February 15, 2024, the Company entered into
a second SAFE (the “Second SAFE”) with the Purchaser, in connection with the Purchaser investing $3.5 million in the Company.
The Second SAFE did not accrue interest. The Second SAFE was initially convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock upon
the initial closing of an Equity Financing transaction at a per share conversion price which was equal to the lower of (i) the Second
SAFE Price, and (ii) 80% of the price per share of the Company’s common stock sold in an Equity Financing transaction. If the Company
consummated a change of control prior to the termination of the Second SAFE, the Purchaser would have been automatically entitled to receive
an amount equal to the greater of (i) $3.5 million and (ii) the amount payable on the number of shares of the Company’s common stock
equal to $3.5 million divided by the Liquidity Price, subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the Second SAFE. The Second SAFE
was convertible into a maximum of 3,707,627 shares of the Company’s common stock, assuming a per share conversion price of $0.94,
which is the product of (i) $1.18, the closing per share price of its common stock on February 15, 2024, multiplied by (ii) 80%.
On April 21, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment (“Second
SAFE Amendment”) that converted the Second SAFE investment of $3.5 million into 9,722,222 shares of the Company’s common stock
based on a conversion price of $0.36 per share, defined in the Second SAFE Amendment as the product of (i) $0.45, the closing price
of the Company’s common stock on April 19, 2024, multiplied by (ii) 80%. Upon conversion, the Company recorded a debit to the
Second SAFE Agreement of $3.5 million, a credit to Additional paid-in-capital of $4.4 million and recognized expense of $0.9 million within
Other (expense) income, net in its unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods
ended June 30, 2024.
26
Third SAFE
On May 13, 2024, the Company entered into a third
SAFE (the “Third SAFE”) with the Purchaser, in connection with the Purchaser investing $1.0 million in the Company. The Third
SAFE is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock upon the initial closing of a bona fide transaction or series of transactions
with the principal purpose of raising capital, pursuant to which the Company issues and sells shares of its common stock in an Equity
Financing transaction, at a per share conversion price which is equal to 50% of the price per share of the Company’s common
stock sold in an Equity Financing. If the Company consummates a change of control prior to the termination of the Third SAFE, the Purchaser
will be automatically entitled to receive a portion of the proceeds of such liquidity event equal to $1.0 million, subject to certain
adjustments as set forth in the Third SAFE. The Third SAFE is convertible into a maximum of 2,750,000 shares of the Company’s common
stock, assuming a per share conversion price of $0.275, which is the product of (i) $0.55, the closing price of the Company’s common
stock on May 13, 2024, multiplied by (ii) 50%. Given that the Third SAFE may be settled in cash or a variable number of shares, the Company
has accounted for the instrument as a liability at its fair value.
The estimated fair value of the Third SAFE was
$ 0.4 million and $ 0.4 million as of June 29, 2025 and December 29, 2024, based upon the assumptions disclosed in Note 4 – Fair
Value Measurements.
The change in the fair value of the Third SAFE is 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 Third SAFE was expense of less than $ 0.1 million and zero in the thirteen week periods ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024,
respectively. The change in the fair value of the Third SAFE was expense of less than $ 0.1 million and zero in the twenty-six week periods
ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively.
(11) Stock-Based Compensation
In July 2023, the Company’s board of directors
adopted and stockholders approved the 2023 Incentive Equity Plan (the “2023 Plan”). The 2023 Plan became effective immediately
upon the closing of the Amended and Restated Business Combination Agreement. Initially, a maximum number of 8,763,322 shares of Complete
Solaria Common Stock may be issued under the 2023 Plan. In addition, the number of shares of Complete Solaria Common Stock reserved for
issuance under the 2023 Plan will automatically increase on January 1 of each year, starting on January 1, 2024 and ending on January
1, 2033, in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) 4 % of the total number of shares of Complete Solaria’s Common Stock outstanding
on December 31 of the preceding year, or (2) a lesser number of shares of Complete Solaria Common Stock determined by Complete Solaria’s
Board prior to the date of the increase. The maximum number of shares of Complete Solaria Common Stock that may be issued on the exercise
of incentive stock options (“ISOs”) under the 2023 Plan is three times the number of shares available for issuance upon the
2023 Plan becoming effective (or 26,289,966 shares).
Historically, awards were granted under the Amended
and Restated Complete Solaria Omnibus Incentive Plan (“2022 Plan”), the Complete Solar 2011 Stock Plan (“2011 Plan”),
the Solaria Corporation 2016 Stock Plan (“2016 Plan”) and the Solaria Corporation 2006 Stock Plan (“2006 Plan”)
(together with the Complete Solaria, Inc. 2023 Incentive Equity Plan (“2023 Plan”), “the Plans”).
27
Under the Plans, the Company has granted service-based
stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”). Compensation expense for stock options under the Company’s cliff
vesting schedule is generally recognized equally over the vesting period of five years. RSUs granted during the fiscal year ended December
29, 2024 are also recognized equally over the vesting period of five years.

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. Historically, there have been no such indemnification claims. In the opinion of
management, any liabilities resulting from these agreements would not have a material adverse effect on the business, financial position,
results of operations, or cash flows of the Company.

of certain assets and assumption of certain liabilities of SunPower on September 30, 2024, certain matters pertaining to the acquisition
were under dispute which included 1) amounts owed to and from the buyer and seller with respect to amounts in escrow related to the consideration
transferred, 2) the right to the cash acquired in the acquisition, and 3) the right for the Company to sell and collect for certain solar
systems that were acquired as a part of the acquisition that were sold or are to be sold to homebuilders within the New Homes Business.
On June 25, 2025, all matters under dispute were resolved by the Company and the Sunpower Bankruptcy Estate. Matters 1) and 2) were resolved
such that no amounts will be paid (or received) by the Company. Matter 3) was resolved such that the Company has the right to sell
the related inventory acquired and collect the underlying sales price for the sale of the solar system. In connection with each
system sold, the Company is required to remit a portion of the sales price to the Bankruptcy Estate. The impact of the related settlement
is not anticipated to be material.
Legal matters
The Company is a party to various legal proceedings
and claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. 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. The Company has a
loss contingency for legal settlements of $ 8.1 million and $ 7.7 million recorded within accrued expenses and other current liabilities
in its unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets at each of June 29, 2025 and December 29, 2024.

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 22, 2021, Siemens Government Technologies,
Inc. (“Siemens Government Technologies”) filed a lawsuit against Solaria Corporation in Fairfax Circuit Court (the “Court”)
in Fairfax, Virginia. 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. In the lawsuit,
Siemens alleged that the Subsidiaries breached express and implied warranties under a purchase order that Siemens placed with the Subsidiaries
for a solar module system. Siemens claimed damages of approximately $ 6.9 million, inclusive of amounts of the Subsidiaries’ indemnity
obligations to Siemens, plus attorneys’ fees.
30
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.
Letters of credit
The Company had $ 3.5 million of outstanding letters
of credit related to normal business transactions as of June 29, 2025 and December 29, 2024. These agreements require the Company to maintain
specified amounts of cash as collateral in segregated accounts to support the letters of credit issued thereunder. As discussed in Note
2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, the cash collateral in these restricted cash accounts was $ 3.8 million at each of
June 29, 2025 and December 29, 2024.
(13) Income Taxes
As a result of the Company’s history of
net operating losses, the Company has provided for a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. For the thirteen week periods
ended June 29, 2025, and June 30, 2024, the Company recognized income tax expense of zero and ten thousand dollars, respectively. For
the twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2025, and June 30, 2024, the Company recognized income tax expense of zero and eleven thousand
dollars, respectively.

(14) Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
The Company uses the two-class method to calculate
net loss per share. No dividends were declared or paid in the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 29, 2025 and June 30, 2024.
The following table sets forth the computation
of the Company’s basic and diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods

The computation of basic net loss per share attributable to common
stockholders is inclusive of warrants with an insignificant exercise price. The Company’s calculation of the weighted average
shares outstanding is inclusive of 236,196 warrants with an insignificant exercise price (which assumes that the warrants were outstanding
as of the beginning of the period or the date of the grant, whichever is earlier) for each of the thirteen and twenty-six week periods
ended June 29, 2025, respectively. The computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is inclusive of the
impact of the Company’s FPAs (which were dilutive) using the if-converted method for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended
June 29, 2025. The computation of diluted net loss per share attributable to common stockholders is also inclusive of the impact of the
Company’s dilutive stock options, RSUs, and warrants as calculated using the treasury stock method for the thirteen and twenty-six
week periods ended June 29, 2025.

(15) Segment Information
The segment information is presented on a basis
that is consistent with the Company’s internal management reporting. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”)
is the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”). The CODM manages the Company and reports financial results based on two reportable
segments which are the same as The Company’s operating segments. The CODM evaluates the performance of these reportable segments
and allocates resources to make operating decisions based on certain financial information, including segmented internal income/(loss)
prepared on a basis consistent with U.S. GAAP. The measurement criteria is based on their operating revenue and operating income (loss)
and excluding any corporate costs which are not allocatable to the operating segments. The CODM’s measurement criteria does not
include segment assets. During the periods presented, the Company reported its financial performance through the following two reportable
segments; Residential Solar Installation and New Homes Business.
Residential Solar Installation .
This segment performs solar system, storage and battery installations for residential homeowners.
New Homes Business . This segment
is new in the thirteen week period ended March 30, 2025, as a result of the SunPower Acquisition which occurred in the fourth quarter
of fiscal 2024. The Company developed a method to allocate direct expenses for the respective reportable segments. This segment performs
solar system installations for new home builders.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following
discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and with our audited consolidated financial statements
and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 30, 2025, and
related management’s discussion and analysis in Item 7 of the Annual Report on Form 10-K. This discussion contains forward-looking
statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could
cause or contribute to such differences include those identified below and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors”
included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Please also see the section titled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements.”
Overview
Complete Solaria was formed
in November 2022 through the merger of Complete Solar and The Solaria Corporation. Founded in 2010, Complete Solar created a technology
platform to offer clean energy products to homeowners by enabling a national network of sales partners and build partners. Our sales partners
generate solar installation contracts with homeowners on our behalf. To facilitate this process, we provide the software tools, sales
support and brand identity to our sales partners, making them competitive with national providers. This turnkey solution makes it easy
for anyone to sell solar. On September 30, 2024, upon approval by the Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, we completed the
acquisition of certain assets relating to the Blue Raven Solar Business, New Homes Business and non-Installing Dealer network previously
operated by SunPower Debtors.
We fulfill our customer contracts
by using in-house installation experts and by engaging with local construction specialists. We manage the customer experience and complete
all pre-construction activities prior to delivering build-ready projects including hardware, engineering plans, and building permits to
our builder partners. We manage and coordinate this process through our proprietary software system.
As further discussed below
and above (Note 15 – Segment Information), we have two reportable segments: Residential Solar Installation and New Homes Business.
There is substantial doubt
about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
are issued. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q 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.
Growth strategy and outlook
Our growth strategy contains the following
elements:
●
Increase revenue by expanding installation capacity and developing new geographic markets – We continue to expand our network of partners who will install systems resulting from sales generated by our sales partners. By leveraging this network of skilled builders in addition to our in-house installation experts, we aim to increase our installation capacity in our traditional markets and expand our offering into new geographies throughout the U.S. This will enable greater sales growth in existing markets and create new revenue in expansion markets.
●
Increase revenue and margin by engaging national-scale sales partners – We aim to offer a turnkey solar solution to prospective sales partners with a national footprint. These include electric vehicle manufacturers, national home security providers, and real estate brokerages. We expect to create a consistent offering with a single execution process for such sales partners throughout their geographic territories. These national accounts have unique customer relationships that we believe will facilitate meaningful sales opportunities and low cost of acquisition to both increase revenue and improve margin.

We entered into an Amended
and Restated Business Combination Agreement with FACT, First Merger Sub, Second Merger Sub, and Solaria on October 3, 2022. The Merger
was consummated on July 18, 2023. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger, (i) First Merger Sub merged with and into
Complete Solaria with Complete Solaria surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of FACT (the “ First Merger ”), (ii) immediately
thereafter and as part of the same overall transaction, Complete Solaria merged with and into Second Merger Sub, with Second Merger Sub
surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of FACT (the “ Second Merger ”), and FACT changed its name to “Complete
Solaria, Inc.” and Second Merger Sub changed its name to “CS, LLC” and (iii) immediately after the consummation of the
Second Merger and as part of the same overall transaction, Solaria merged with and into a newly formed Delaware limited liability company
and wholly-owned subsidiary of FACT and changed its name to “The SolarCA LLC” (“ Third Merger Sub ”), with
Third Merger Sub surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of FACT (the “Additional Merger”, and together with the First Merger
and the Second Merger, the “ Mergers ”).
The Mergers between Complete
Solaria and FACT has been accounted for as a reverse recapitalization. Under this method of accounting, FACT was treated as the acquired
company for financial statement reporting purposes. This determination was primarily 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 have been treated as the equivalent of a capital transaction in which Complete Solaria is issuing
stock for the net assets of FACT. The net assets of FACT have been stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets
recorded.
Disposal transaction
In October 2023, we completed
the divestiture of our solar panel business to Maxeon (“ Divestiture ”), pursuant to the terms of a disposal agreement
(“Disposal Agreement”). Under the terms of the Disposal Agreement, Maxeon agreed to acquire certain assets and employees of
Complete Solaria, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $11.0 million consisting of 1,100,000 shares of Maxeon ordinary shares.
We determined that the criteria were met for discontinued operations classification as the divestiture represented a strategic shift in
our business. In connection with the Divestiture, we recognized a loss from discontinued operations of $2.0 million and $173.4 million
in the fiscal years ended December 29, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. We also sold all the Maxeon shares in the year ended
December 31, 2023, and recorded a $4.2 million loss on the sale of these shares in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive
loss.
Below we have discussed our
historical results of operations, which excludes our product revenues and related metrics, as all results of operations associated with
the solar panel business have been presented as discontinued operations, unless otherwise noted.
SunPower acquisition transaction
On August 5, 2024, we entered
into the asset purchase agreement among us and the SunPower Debtors which provided for the sale and 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 (the
“Acquired SunPower Assets”). The sale by SunPower was approved on September 23, 2024, by the United States Bankruptcy Court
for the District of Delaware. We completed the acquisition (“ Acquisition ”) of the Acquired SunPower Assets (“SunPower
Businesses”) effective September 30, 2024.
We financed the Acquisition
by issuing 7% convertible senior notes (“ September 2024 Notes ”) in September 2024, which are due in 2029. The September
2024 Notes mature on July 1, 2029 and are convertible into shares of our common stock at the option of the holder at a conversion rate
of $2.14 per share. The September 2024 Notes will become immediately due and payable at the option of the holder in the event of
default and upon a qualifying change of control event.

Key financial definitions/components of results
of operations
Revenues
Revenue is recognized for
Residential Solar Installation and New Homes Business when a customer obtains control of promised products and services and we have satisfied
our performance obligations which is the date by which substantially all of our 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. We account
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 we expect to be entitled to receive in exchange for the products and services. To achieve this core principle,
we apply the following five steps:
Step
1. Identification of the contract(s) with a customer;
Step
2. Identification of the performance obligations in the contracts(s);
Step 3. Determination of the transaction price;
Step
4. Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations;
Step
5. Recognition of the revenue when, or as, we satisfy a performance obligation.
Residential Solar Installation revenues
Our Residential Solar Installation
segment sells products through a network of installing and non-installing dealers and resellers, as well as our internal sales team. Our
contracts with customers include three primary contract types:
●
Cash agreements – We contract directly with homeowners who purchase the solar energy system and related services from us. Customers are invoiced on a billing schedule, where the majority of the transaction price is due upon installation with an additional payment due when the system passes inspection by the authority having jurisdiction.
●
Financing partner agreements – In our financing partner agreements, we contract directly with homeowners for the purchase of the solar energy system and related services. We refer the homeowner to a financing partner to finance the system, and the homeowner makes payments directly to the financing partner. We receive consideration from the financing partner on a billing schedule where the majority of the transaction price is due upon installation with an additional payment due when the system passes inspection by the authority having jurisdiction.
●
Power purchase agreements and lease agreements – We contract directly with a leasing partner to perform the solar energy system installation, and the homeowner will finance the system through a power purchase agreement (or lease), which is signed with our leasing partner. We consider the leasing partner to be our customer, as we do not contract directly with the homeowner and the leasing partner takes ownership of the system upon the completion of installation. We receive consideration from the leasing partner on a billing schedule where the majority of the transaction price is due upon installation with an additional payment due when the system passes inspection by the authority having jurisdiction.
38
New Homes Business revenues
Our New Homes Business segment
sells through a network of home builders as well as our internal sales team. Our contracts with customers include two primary contract
types:
●
Cash agreements – We contract directly with homebuilders who purchase the solar energy system from us and are the customers in the transaction. Our customers are invoiced upon the completion of installation.
●
Lease agreements – Prior to the SunPower Corporation’s declaration of bankruptcy, certain homeowners had intended to lease a system from the SunPower Corporation, but were unable to consummate the transaction (as a result of SunPower’s declaration of bankruptcy). The in-process system inventory (installed on recently constructed homes) was acquired by us in connection with the SunPower Acquisition. We contracted directly with a leasing partner to facilitate the leasing of the system to the impacted homeowners. We consider the leasing partner to be our customer. Under the terms of our arrangement with the leasing partner, control is not transferred to the customer until the completed system is accepted by the customer. We receive consideration from the leasing partner following the acceptance of the system.
Our performance obligation
for both 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), we recognize revenue over time. Our 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). We recognize revenue using the input method based on
direct costs to install the system and defer the costs of installation until such time that control of the asset transfers to the customer
(installation). For New Homes Business Lease agreements, we consider 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. Our 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 probably that a
significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur and true-ups are applied prospectively as such estimates change.
We record deferred revenue
for amounts invoiced that are received in advance of the provisioning of services. In certain contracts with customers, we arrange for
a third-party financing partner to provide financing to the customer. We collect upfront from the financing partner and the customer will
provide installment payments to the financing partner. We record revenue in the amount received from the financing partner, net of any
financing fees charged to the homeowner, which we consider to be a customer incentive. None of our contracts contain a significant financing
component.
Costs to obtain and fulfill contracts
Our 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 we provide to our customers, such as discounts and rebates, are recorded net to the revenue we have recognized on the solar
power system.
39
Cost of revenues
Cost of revenues is comprised
primarily of cost of material, internal labor costs, third-party subcontractors, design services, engineering personnel and employee-related
expenses associated with permitting services, associated warranty costs, freight and delivery costs, depreciation, and amortization of
internally developed software. Cost of revenues from these services is recognized when we transfer control of the product to the customer,
which is generally upon installation.
Operating expenses
Sales commissions
Sales commissions are direct
and incremental costs of obtaining customer contracts. These costs are paid to internal sales teams and third-party vendors who source
residential customer contracts for the sale of solar energy systems.
Sales and marketing
Sales and marketing expenses
primarily consist of personnel related costs, including salaries and employee benefits, stock-based compensation, and other promotional
and advertising expenses. We expense certain sales and marketing, including promotional expenses, as incurred.
General and administrative
General and administrative
expenses consist primarily of personnel and related expenses for employees, in our finance, research, engineering, and administrative
teams including salaries, bonuses, payroll taxes, and stock-based compensation. It also consists of legal, consulting, and professional
fees, rent expenses pertaining to our offices, business insurance costs and other costs.
Interest expense
Interest expense primarily
relates to interest expense on the issuance of debt and convertible notes and the amortization of debt issuance costs.
Other (expense) income,
net
Other (expense) income,
net consists of changes in the fair value of our derivative liabilities in connection with our convertible notes and changes in the
fair value of common stock warrant liabilities, forward purchase agreements, and SAFE Agreements.
Income tax expense
Income tax expense primarily
consists of income taxes in certain jurisdictions in which we conduct business.
40
Supply chain constraints
and risk
We
rely on a small number of suppliers of solar energy systems and other equipment. If any of our suppliers was unable or unwilling to provide
us with contracted quantities in a timely manner at prices, quality levels and volumes acceptable to us, we would have very limited alternatives
for supply, and we may not be able find suitable replacements for our customers, or at all. Such an event could materially adversely affect
our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
The
global supply chain and our industry have experienced significant disruptions in recent periods. We have seen supply chain challenges
and logistics constraints increase, including shortages of panels, inverters, batteries and associated component parts for inverters and
solar energy systems available for purchase, which materially impacted our results of operations. These shortages and delays can be attributed
in part to the broader macroeconomic conditions and have been exacerbated by the ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and Israel. If any of our
suppliers of solar modules experienced disruptions in the supply of the modules’ component parts, for example semiconductor solar
wafers or inverters, this may decrease production capabilities and restrict our inventory and sales. In addition, we have experienced
and are experiencing varying levels of volatility in costs of equipment and labor resulting in part from disruptions caused by general
global economic conditions. While inflationary pressures have resulted in higher costs of products, in part due to an increase in the
cost of the materials and wage rates, these additional costs have been offset by the related rise in electricity rates.
We cannot predict the full effects the supply chain constraints will
have on our business, cash flows, liquidity, financial condition and results of operations at this time due to numerous uncertainties.
Given the dynamic nature of these circumstances on our ongoing business, results of operations and overall financial performance, the
full impact of macroeconomic factors, including the conflicts in Ukraine and Israel, cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. In the
event we are unable to mitigate the impact of delays or price volatility in solar energy systems, raw materials, and freight, it could
materially adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. For additional information on risk
factors that could impact our results, please refer to “ Risk Factors ” located included elsewhere in this Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q.

Interest expense
Interest
expense inclusive of amortization of debt issuance costs was $7.7 million in the thirteen-weeks ended June 29, 2025. Interest expense
and amortization of debt issuance costs primarily consisted of $2.4 million attributable to the July 2024 Notes and $5.1 million attributable
to the September 2024 Notes, with the remainder attributable to interest expense on our $1.5 million principal obligation owed to T. J
Rodgers and finance lease interest expense. The July 2024 Notes and September 2024 Notes were issued in fiscal 2024 and replaced our then
existing debt.
Interest
expense was $2.3 million in the thirteen weeks ended June 30, 2024, and consisted of $1.3 million of interest expense relating to our
obligation to Carlyle, $0.4 million relating to our secured credit line, $0.4 million related to our 2018 Bridge Loan and $0.2 million
attributable to the $5.0 million revolver balance. Except for $1.5 million of the revolver balance, these obligations were fully settled
in the Exchange Agreement that we entered into in July 2024.
Other (expense) income, net
Other
(expense) income net, for the thirteen weeks ended June 29, 2025, was $12.0 million. The main drivers consist of $11.5 million expense
due to the remeasurement of the fair value of derivative liabilities associated with our July 2024 Notes and September 2024 Notes and
$2.0 million of expense associated with the change in the fair value of our public, private placement and working capital warrants which
are accounted for as liabilities. These expenses were partially offset by $1.3 million of income arising from the change in the fair value
of our forward purchase agreements and other income.
Other
(expense) income, net in the thirteen-weeks ended June 30, 2024 was expense of $2.1 million and was comprised of $3.3 million of expense
arising from changes in the fair value of warrants issued for our common stock, $1.3 million loss incurred on the conversion of two SAFE
Agreements to shares of our common stock and $0.3 million of other costs, partially offset by $2.8 million of income relating to changes
in the fair value of our forward purchase agreements.
Net loss from continuing operations
As
a result of the factors discussed above, our net loss from continuing operations for the thirteen-weeks ended June 29, 2025 was $22.4
million, a $8.5 million increase in our net loss as compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $13.9 million for the thirteen
weeks ended June 30, 2024.

Interest expense
Interest
expense inclusive of amortization of debt issuance costs was $15.1 million in the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2025. Interest expense
and amortization of debt issuance costs primarily consisted of $4.7 million attributable to the July 2024 Notes and $10.2 million attributable
to the September 2024 Notes, with the remainder attributable to interest expense on our $1.5 million principal obligation owed to T. J
Rodgers and finance lease interest expense.
Interest
expense was $5.9 million in the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024, and consisted of $3.9 million of interest expense relating to our
obligation to Carlyle, $1.0 million relating to our secured credit line, $0.7 million related to our 2018 Bridge Loan and $0.3 million
attributable to the $5.0 million revolver balance.
Other (expense) income, net
Other
(expense) income net, for the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2025, was income of $2.5 million. The main drivers consisted of $3.7 million
of gain on the remeasurement of the fair value of derivative liabilities associated with our July 2024 Notes and September 2024 Notes
and $1.6 million of income arising from the change in the fair value of our forward purchase agreements partially offset by $3.0 million
of expense associated with the change in the fair value of our public, private placement and working capital warrants which are accounted
for as liabilities.
Other
(expense) income, net in the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024 was expense of $0.6 million. We incurred expenses of $2.8 million relating
to changes in the fair value of our forward purchase agreement and $1.3 million loss incurred on the conversion of two SAFE Agreements
to shares of our common stock and $0.4 million of other expenses. These expenses were partially offset by $3.9 million of income arising
from changes in the fair value of warrants issued for our common stock.
Net loss from continuing operations
As
a result of the factors discussed above, our net loss from continuing operations for the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2025 was $14.3
million, a $9.2 million increase/decrease, as compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $23.5 million for the twenty-six week
period ended June 30, 2024.

Liquidity and capital resources
Overview
Since inception, we have incurred
losses and negative cash flows from operations. We had a net loss from continuing operations of $14.3 million in the twenty-six week period
ended June 29, 2025. As of June 29, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $425.7 million, total debt, including derivative liabilities
of $152.9 million, and cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash) of $11.1 million which was held for working capital expenditures.
We believe our operating losses and negative operating cash flows will continue into the foreseeable future.
Our material cash requirements
include cash required to fund our operations, to meet our working capital requirements and to fund our capital expenditures.
We have financed our operations
primarily through sales of equity securities, debt, issuance of convertible notes, cash generated from operations and the proceeds from
the Mergers. As a result of not timely filing our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2024, we are not currently eligible to
use a registration statement on Form S-3 that would allow us to continuously incorporate by reference our SEC reports into the
registration statement, to use “shelf” registration statements to conduct offerings, or to use our at-the-market offering
facility until approximately one year from the date we have regained and maintained status as a current filer. Our inability to use Form
S-3 may significantly impair our ability to raise necessary capital to fund our operations and execute our strategy. If we seek to access
the capital markets through a registered offering during the period of time that we are unable to use Form S-3, we may be required to
publicly disclose the proposed offering and the material terms thereof before the offering commences, we may experience delays in the
offering process due to SEC review of a Form S-1 registration statement and we may incur increased offering and transaction costs and
other considerations. If we are unable to raise capital through a registered offering, we would be required to conduct our 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 our financing approaches could prevent us from pursuing transactions
or implementing business strategies that would be beneficial to our business.
Our cash equivalents are on
deposit with major financial institutions. Our cash position raises substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern
for 12 months following the issuance of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
We will receive the proceeds from any cash exercise of warrants for
shares of our common stock. The aggregate amount of proceeds could be up to $257.2 million if all the warrants are exercised for cash.
However, to the extent the warrants are exercised on a “cashless basis,” the amount of cash we would receive from the exercise
of those warrants will decrease. The Private Warrants and Working Capital Warrants, as so identified in our unaudited condensed consolidated
financial statements, may be exercised for cash or on a “cashless basis.” The Public Warrants and the Merger Warrants may
only be exercised for cash provided there is an effective registration statement registering the shares of common stock issuable upon
the exercise of such warrants. If there is not a then-effective registration statement, then such warrants may be exercised on a “cashless
basis,” pursuant to an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. We expect to use any such proceeds for general
corporate and working capital purposes, which would increase our liquidity. As of August 11, 2025, the price of our common stock was $1.55
per share. The weighted average exercise price of the warrants was $10.02 as of June 29, 2025. We believe the likelihood that warrant
holders will exercise their warrants, and therefore the amount of cash proceeds that we would receive is dependent upon the market price
of our common stock. If the market price for our common stock remains less than the exercise price, we believe warrant holders will be
unlikely to exercise.

Debt financings
12% unsecured convertible senior notes
In July 2024, we issued $46.0 million of senior unsecured convertible
notes (“July 2024 Notes”) to various lenders in connection with the exchange agreement transactions summarized below. Of the
July 2024 Notes, $18.0 million were issued in exchange for the cancellation of existing indebtedness, which amount included $10.0 million
issued to CRSEF Solis Holdings, LLC and its affiliates (“Carlyle”), identified by us as a related party at the transaction
date. During the thirteen week period ended June 29, 2025, Carlyle ceased to be a significant shareholder and therefore is no longer deemed
a related party with the Company. The July 2024 Notes also include $18.0 million initially issued to a related party affiliated with the
Company’s CEO, Rodgers Massey Revocable Living Trust (“Rodgers Revocable Trust”). The July 2024 Notes bear interest
at 12% per annum and mature on July 1, 2029. The interest rate increases by 3% in the event of default. The July 2024 Notes are convertible
into shares of our common stock at the option of the holder at a conversion rate initially equal to 595.2381 shares of common stock per
$1,000 principal amount of the July notes. The July 2024 Notes may be declared due and payable at the option of the holder upon an event
of default and upon a qualifying change of control event.
7% unsecured convertible senior notes
In September 2024, we
issued $66.8 million of senior unsecured convertible notes to various lenders (the “September 2024 Notes”), $8.0 million of
which were issued to a related party. In December 2024, we issued additional September 2024 Notes for cash proceeds of $13.0 million,
and we issued an additional $0.2 million of the September 2024 Notes in the thirteen week period ended March 30, 2025. The September 2024
Notes bear interest at 7% per annum and mature on July 1, 2029. The September 2024 Notes are initially convertible into 467.8363 shares
of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of September 2024 Notes. The September 2024 Notes may be declared due and payable at the option
of the holder upon an event of default and upon a qualifying change of control event.
Loans with related party
We have a fixed principal balance of $1.5 million outstanding as of
June 29, 2025, due to the Rodgers Revocable Trust, a related party. In the thirteen week period ended June 29, 2025, $5.0 million was
deposited into our Company by the Rodgers Massey Revocable Trust, and on July 10, 2025, this $5.0 million deposit was converted into the
July 2025 Note. See Note 17 – Subsequent Events, “ Issuance of 12% convertible senior unsecured convertible note to related
party” .
Forward purchase agreements
In July 2023, FACT and Legacy Complete Solaria, Inc. entered into FPAs
with each of (i) Meteora Special Opportunity Fund I, LP (“MSOF”), Meteora Capital Partners, LP (“MCP”) and Meteora
Select Trading Opportunities Master, LP (“MSTO”) (with MSOF, MCP, and MSTO collectively as “Meteora”); (ii)
Sandia Investment Management LP (“Sandia”) , and (iii) Polar Multi-Strategy Master Fund (“Polar”) (each individually,
a “Seller”, and together, the “FPA Sellers”).
Pursuant
to the terms of the FPAs, the FPA Sellers may purchase through a broker in the open market, from holders of Shares other than the Company
or affiliates thereof, FACT’s ordinary shares, par value of $0.0001 per share, (the “Shares”). While the FPA Sellers
have no obligation to purchase any Shares under the FPAs, the aggregate total Shares that may be purchased under the FPAs shall be no
more than 6,720,000 in aggregate. The FPA Sellers may not beneficially own greater than 9.9% of issued and outstanding Shares
following the Mergers as per the Amended and Restated Business Combination Agreement.
The
key terms of the forward contracts are as follows:
●
The FPA Sellers can terminate the transaction following the Optional Early Termination (“OET”) Date which shall specify the quantity by which the number of shares is to be reduced (such quantity, the “Terminated Shares”). Seller shall terminate the transaction in respect of any shares sold on or prior to the maturity date. The counterparty is entitled to an amount from the seller equal to the number of terminated shares multiplied by a reset price. The reset price is initially $10.56 (the “Initial Price”) and is subject to a $5.00 floor.
49
●
The FPAs contains multiple settlement outcomes. Per the terms of the agreements, the FPAs will (1) settle in cash in the event the Company is due cash upon settlement from the FPA Sellers or (2) settle in either cash or shares, at the discretion of the Company, should the settlement amount adjustment exceed the settlement amount. Should the Company elect to settle via shares, the equity will be issued in Complete Solaria Common Stock, with a per share price based on the volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) Price over 15 scheduled trading days. The magnitude of the settlement is based on the Settlement Amount, an amount equal to the product of: (1) Number of shares issued to the FPA Seller pursuant to the FPA, less the number of Terminated Shares multiplied by (2) the VWAP Price over the valuation period. The Settlement amount will be reduced by the Settlement Adjustment, an amount equal to the product of (1) Number of shares in the Pricing Date Notice, less the number of Terminated Shares multiplied by $2.00.
●
The Settlement occurs as of the Valuation Date, which is the earlier to occur of (a) the date that is two years after the date of the Closing Date of the Mergers (b) the date specified by Seller in a written notice to be delivered to Counterparty at Seller’s discretion (which Valuation Date shall not be earlier than the day such notice is effective) after the occurrence of certain triggering events; and (c) 90 days after delivery by the Counterparty of a written notice in the event that for any 20 trading days during a 30 consecutive trading day-period (the “Measurement Period”) that occurs at least 6 months after the Closing Date, the VWAP Price is less than the then applicable Reset Price.
We
entered into four separate FPAs, three of which, associated with the obligation to issue 6,300,000 Shares, were entered into prior to
the closing of the Mergers. Upon signing the FPAs, we incurred an obligation to issue a fixed number of shares to the FPA Sellers contingent
upon the closing of the Mergers in addition to the terms and conditions associated with the settlement of the FPAs.
On
December 18, 2023, we and the FPA Sellers entered into separate amendments to the FPA (the “Amendments”). The Amendments lowered
the reset floor price of each FPA from $5.00 to $3.00 and allow us to raise up to $10.0 million of equity from existing stockholders without
triggering certain anti-dilution provisions contained in the FPA; provided, the insiders pay a price per share for their initial investment
equal to the closing price per share as quoted on the Nasdaq on the day of purchase; provided, further, that any subsequent investments
are made at a price per share equal to the greater of (a) the closing price per share as quoted by Nasdaq on the day of the purchase or
(b) the amount paid in connection with the initial investment.
On
May 7 and 8, 2024, respectively, we entered into and executed separate amendments to the FPAs (collectively the “Second Amendments”)
with Sandia (the “Sandia Second Amendment”) and Polar (the “Polar Second Amendment”). The Second Amendments lowered
the reset price of each FPA from $3.00 to $1.00 per share and amended the VWAP Trigger Event provision to read as “After December
31, 2024, an event that occurs if the VWAP Price, for any 20 trading days during a 30 consecutive trading day-period, is below $1.00 per
Share”. The Sandia Second Amendment is not effective until we execute similar amendments with both Polar and Meteora.
50
On
June 14, 2024, we entered into and executed an amendment to the FPA with Sandia (the “Sandia Third Amendment”). The Sandia
Third Amendment set the reset price of each FPA to $1.00 per share and amended the VWAP Trigger Event provision to read as “After
December 31, 2024, an event that occurs if the VWAP Price, for any 20 trading days during a 30 consecutive trading day-period, is below
$1.00 per Share.”
On
July 17, 2024, we entered into an amendment to the FPA with Polar pursuant to which we and Polar agreed that Section 2 (Most Favored Nation)
of the FPA is applicable to all 2,450,000 shares subject to the FPA.
On July 15, 2025, we and Meteora entered into an amendment to the FPA
between Meteora and us, on July 16, 2025, we and Sandia entered into an amendment to the FPA between Sandia and us, and on August 1, 2025,
we and Polar entered in an amendment to the FPA between Polar and us (collectively, the “FPA Amendments”).
The FPA Amendments extend the valuation date applicable
to the Forward Purchase Agreements (the “Valuation Date”) to the earliest to occur of (a) July 17, 2026, (b) the date specified
by Meteora or Sandia, as applicable, in a written notice to be delivered to the Company at their discretion and (c) 90 days after delivery
by us of a written notice in the event that for any 20 trading days during a 30 consecutive trading day-period that occurs at
least six months after the closing date of the transactions under the Amended and Restated Business Combination Agreement entered into
on May 26, 2023, the applicable volume-weighted average price (“VWAP Price”) is less than the then applicable reset price,
provided that a registration statement was effective and available for the entire measurement period and remains continuously effective
and available during the entire 90 day notice period.
The FPA Amendments further amend the definition
of “Settlement Amount Adjustment” to provide that if the expected Settlement Amount (as defined in the FPA Amendments) determined
by the VWAP Price over the 15 scheduled trading days ending on but excluding the valuation date exceeds the Settlement Amount Adjustment,
then the Settlement Amount Adjustment shall be deemed to be zero, and that if the Settlement Amount Adjustment exceeds the Settlement
Amount, then the Settlement Amount Adjustment shall be paid, at our option, in cash or shares of the our common stock.
The FPA Amendments also amend the definition of
“Cash Settlement Payment Date” to provide that if the Settlement Amount Adjustment exceeds the Settlement Amount, we shall
remit to the applicable seller the difference between (i) the Settlement Amount Adjustment and (ii) the Settlement Amount. The FPA Amendments
further provide that the Settlement Amount will be used solely as a calculation mechanism to determine any liability we may owe to the
applicable seller via the Settlement Amount Adjustment, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the applicable seller shall not
be required to remit the Settlement Amount to us or return any portion of the Prepayment Amount.
51
Simple agreement for future equity (“SAFE”)
agreements
First SAFE
On
January 31, 2024, we entered into a SAFE (“First SAFE”) with the Rodgers Massey Freedom and Free Markets Charitable Trust
(the “Purchaser”) in connection with the Purchaser investing $1.5 million in the Company. The First SAFE is convertible into
shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, upon the initial closing of a bona fide transaction or series of transactions
with the principal purpose of raising capital, pursuant to which we issue and sell common stock at a fixed valuation (an “Equity
Financing”), at a per share conversion price which is equal to the lower of (i) (a) $53.54 million divided by (b) our capitalization
immediately prior to such Equity Financing (such conversion price, the “SAFE Price”), and (ii) 80% of the price per share
of our common stock sold in an Equity Financing transaction. If we consummate a change of control prior to the termination of the First
SAFE, the Purchaser will be automatically entitled to receive a portion of the proceeds of such liquidity event equal to the greater of
(i) $1.5 million and (ii) the amount payable on the number of shares of our common stock equal to (a) $1.5 million divided by (b)(1) $53.54
million divided by (2) our capitalization immediately prior to such liquidity event (the “Liquidity Price”), subject to certain
adjustments as set forth in the First SAFE. The First SAFE was convertible into a maximum of 1,431,297 shares of our common stock, assuming
a per share conversion price of $1.05, which is the product of (i) $1.31, the closing price of our common stock on January 31, 2024, multiplied
by (ii) 80%.
On April 21, 2024, we entered into an amendment (“First SAFE
Amendment”) that converted the First SAFE investment of $1.5 million into 4,166,667 shares of our common stock based on a conversion
price of $0.36 per share, defined in the First SAFE Amendment as the product of (i) $0.45, the closing price of our common stock
on April 19, 2024, multiplied by (ii) 80%. Upon conversion, we recorded a debit to SAFE Agreement of $1.5 million, a credit to Additional
paid-in-capital of $1.9 million and recognized expense of $0.4 million within Other (expense) income, net in results of operations in
the thirteen and twenty six week periods ended June 30, 2024.
Second SAFE
On
February 15, 2024, we entered into a second SAFE (the “Second SAFE”) with the Purchaser, in connection with the Purchaser
investing $3.5 million in the Company. The Second SAFE did not accrue interest. The Second SAFE was initially convertible into shares
of our common stock upon the initial closing of an Equity Financing transaction at a per share conversion price which was equal to the
lower of (i) the Second SAFE Price, and (ii) 80% of the price per share of our common stock sold in such Equity Financing. If we consummated
a change of control prior to the termination of the Second SAFE, the Purchaser would have been automatically entitled to receive an amount
equal to the greater of (i) $3.5 million and (ii) the amount payable on the number of shares of our common stock equal to $3.5 million
divided by the Liquidity Price, subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the Second SAFE. The Second SAFE was convertible into a
maximum of 3,707,627 shares of our common stock, assuming a per share conversion price of $0.94, which is the product of (i) $1.18, the
closing per share price of our common stock on February 15, 2024, (ii) 80%.
On April 21, 2024, we entered into an amendment (“Second SAFE
Amendment”) that converted the Second SAFE investment of $3.5 million into 9,722,222 shares of our common stock based on a conversion
price of $0.36 per share, defined in the Second SAFE Amendment as the product of (i) $0.45, the closing price of our common stock
on April 19, 2024, multiplied by (ii) 80%. Upon conversion, we recorded a debit to SAFE Agreement of $3.5 million, a credit to Additional
paid-in-capital of $4.4 million and recognized expense of $0.9 million within Other (expense) income, net in our results of operations
in the thirteen and twenty six week periods ended June 30, 2024.
Third SAFE
On
May 13, 2024, we entered into a third SAFE (the “Third SAFE”) with the Purchaser, in connection with the Purchaser investing
$1.0 million in the Company. The Third SAFE is convertible into shares of our common stock upon the initial closing of a bona fide transaction
or series of transactions with the principal purpose of raising capital, pursuant to which the Company issues and sells shares of its
common stock in an Equity Financing transaction, at a per share conversion price which is equal to 50% of the price per share of
our common stock sold in such Equity Financing transaction. If we consummate a change of control prior to the termination of the Third
SAFE, the Purchaser will be automatically entitled to receive a portion of the proceeds of such liquidity event equal to $1.0 million,
subject to certain adjustments as set forth in the Third SAFE. The Third SAFE is convertible into a maximum of 2,750,000 shares of our
common stock, assuming a per share conversion price of $0.275, which is the product of (i) $0.55, the closing price of our common stock
on May 13, 2024, multiplied by (ii) 50%. Given that the SAFE could be settled in cash or a variable number of shares, we have accounted
for the instrument as a liability at its fair value.
52
As
June 29, 2025, we estimated the fair value of the Third SAFE at $0.4 million based upon the assumptions disclosed in Note 4 – Fair
Value Measurements to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Cash flows from operating activities
Net cash used in operating
activities from continuing operations of $7.1 million in the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2025 was due to net loss from continuing
operations of $14.3 million offset by $15.6 million of favorable noncash adjustments and $8.5 million of cash outflows from changes in
operating assets and liabilities. Significant movement in non-cash adjustments consisted of favorable non-cash adjustments of $9.3 million
of amortization of debt issuance costs, $4.0 million of stock-based compensation, $3.0 million of depreciation and amortization, $3.0
million for the change in the fair value of warrant liabilities, $1.2 million for the provision of credit losses and $0.6 million of non-cash
lease expense, partially offset by $3.7 million gain on the change in the fair value of derivative liabilities and $1.6 million change
in the fair value of forward purchase agreement liabilities and net other adjustments of $0.2 million. Cash outflows from changes in operating
assets of $8.5 million consisted of a $14.5 million increase in accounts receivable, a $25.7 million increase in contract assets, a $1.2
million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets and noncurrent assets, a $2.3 million decrease in accrued expenses and other
liabilities and a $0.7 million decrease in the operating lease obligations, partially offset by an $15.6 million decrease in inventories,
$9.3 million increase in accounts payable and a $11.0 million increase in contract liabilities.
Net cash used in operating
activities from continuing operations of $7.6 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024 was primarily due to the net loss from
continuing operations, net of tax of $23.5 million partially offset by non-cash charges of $12.3 million and net cash inflows of $3.6
million from changes in our operating assets and liabilities. Non-cash charges in our operating results consisted of $1.6 million of non-cash
expense in connection with warrants issued for vendor services, a $2.8 million adjustment to our forward purchase agreement liabilities,
$2.6 million stock-based compensation expense, $3.9 in million accretion of interest attributable to the CS Solis Debt, $2.0 million of
other non-cash interest, $1.3 million loss arising from the loss on conversion of two SAFE Agreements to shares of our common stock, $0.7
million of depreciation and amortization, $0.3 million of non-cash lease expense, and $0.9 million of provision for credit losses, partially
offset by $2.6 million of income from the change in the fair value of our warrant liabilities and a $1.2 million decrease in our reserve
for excess and obsolete inventory. The main drivers of net cash inflows derived from the changes in operating assets and liabilities were
related to a decrease in accounts receivable, net of $12.4 million and a decrease in inventories of $2.3 million, partially offset by
an increase in prepaid and other current assets of $1.4 million, a decrease in accounts payable of $2.1 million, a decrease in accrued
expenses and other liabilities of $6.1 million, a decrease in operating lease liabilities of $0.3 million and a decrease in contract liabilities
of $1.2 million.
53
Cash flows from investing activities
Net cash used in investing
activities from continuing operations was zero and $0.9 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2025, and June 30, 2024, respectively,
and attributable to additions to internal-use-software.
Cash flows from financing activities
Net cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations
was $4.8 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 29, 2025 and consisted of $5.0 million deposit received from a related party and
we subsequently issued a July 2025 Note to such related party (See Note 17 – Subsequent Events, “ Issuance of 12% convertible
senior unsecured convertible note to related party”), $0.2 million in proceeds from the issuance of September 2024 Notes, and
$0.6 million in proceeds from the exercise of stock options and warrants in exchange for the issuance of shares of our common stock partially
offset by $1.0 million of finance leases payments.
Net cash provided by financing
activities from continuing operations of $7.8 million for the twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2024 was primarily due to $6.0 million in
net proceeds from the issuance of SAFE agreements to a related party, $2.0 million deposit received from a related party in connection
with a financing transaction, and less than $0.1 million in net proceeds from the exercise of stock options, partially offset by a $0.3
million final payment on the settlement of the a note payable.
Emerging growth company
status
Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart
Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act, exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised
financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards.
The JOBS Act provides that a company can choose not to take advantage of the extended transition period and comply with the
requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies, and any such election to not take advantage of the extended transition
period is irrevocable.
Complete Solaria is an “emerging
growth company” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act and has elected to take advantage of the benefits of the extended
transition period for new or revised financial accounting standards. Following the closing of the Mergers, our Post-Combination Company
remains an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which the market value of common stock
that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the end of that year’s second fiscal quarter, (ii) the last
day of the fiscal year in which we has total annual gross revenue of $1.235 billion or more during such fiscal year (as indexed for inflation),
(iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt in the prior three-year period, or (iv)
the last day of the fiscal year ending after the fifth anniversary of our IPO. Complete Solaria expects to continue to take advantage
of the benefits of the extended transition period, although it may decide to early adopt such new or revised accounting standards to the
extent permitted by such standards. This may make it difficult or impossible to compare our financial results with the financial results
of another public company that is either not an emerging growth company or is an emerging growth company that has chosen not to take advantage
of the extended transition period exemptions because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND
PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure
controls and procedures
As
of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we conducted an evaluation, under the supervision and with the
participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our
disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange
Act”). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 29, 2025,
such disclosure controls and procedures were not effective, solely as a result of previously reported material weaknesses.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, there were no changes to previously
issued financial statements. Our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer believe that the interim unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly present, in all material respects, our financial
condition, results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
A
material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is
a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected
on a timely basis. The material weaknesses are as follows:
The
Company did not maintain controls to execute the criteria established in the COSO Framework for (i) the control environment, (ii) risk
assessment, (iii) control activities, (iv) information and communication, and (v) monitoring activities.
Each
of the control deficiencies identified below constitute material weaknesses, either individually or in the aggregate.
Control
Environment. The Company did not maintain an effective control environment and identified the following material weakness: the
Company lacked appropriate policies and resources to develop and operate effective internal control over financial reporting and a lack
of appropriate and consistent IT policies given the significant volume of financially relevant IT changes, which contributed to the Company’s
inability to properly analyze, record and disclose accounting matters timely and accurately.
This
control environment material weakness also contributed to the other material weaknesses identified below.
Risk
Assessment. The Company did not design and implement an effective risk assessment and identified a material weakness relating
to: (i) identifying, assessing, and communicating appropriate objectives, (ii) identifying and analyzing risks to achieve these objectives,
and (iii) identifying and assessing changes in the business that could impact the system of internal controls.
55
Control
Activities. The Company did not design and implement effective control activities and identified the following material weakness:
●
Ineffective design and operation of certain control activities due to significant personnel changes throughout 2024. Control deficiencies, which aggregate to a material weakness, occurred within substantially all areas of financial reporting.
Information
and Communication. The Company did not design and implement effective information and communication activities and identified
the following material weaknesses:
●
The Company did not design and maintain effective general information technology controls over logical access and program change management for our key information systems used to support the financial reporting process. Specifically, management did not maintain effective controls to ensure proper segregation of duties related to user administration and other privileged access functions and in implementing program changes in information systems. Due to the pervasive nature of these deficiencies, business process controls that are dependent upon information from these systems were also not effective.
●
The Company did not have adequate processes and controls for communicating information among the accounting, finance, operations, and legal departments, necessary to support the proper functioning of internal controls.
Monitoring
Activities. The Company did not design and implement effective monitoring activities and identified the following material weaknesses:
(i) failure to adequately monitor compliance with accounting policies, procedures and controls related to substantially all areas of financial
reporting; and (ii) failure to properly select, develop and perform ongoing evaluations of the components of internal controls (including
the monitoring of service providers’ control environments).
These
material weaknesses described in the paragraphs above contributed to material accounting errors identified and corrected during the audit
of the Company’s financial statements. If we fail to adequately remediate these material weaknesses, there could be material misstatements
that may not be prevented or detected.
Remediation
Plan and Status. As previously described in Part II, Item 9A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December
29, 2024, management is in the process of implementing its remediation plan. The Company is committed to remediating the material weaknesses
identified above, fostering continuous improvement in internal controls and enhancing its overall internal control environment. Since
identifying the above material weaknesses, the Company has begun the process of implementing the remediation activities described below.
The Company believes that these activities, when fully implemented, should remediate the identified material weaknesses and strengthen
its internal control over financial reporting. These remediation efforts remain ongoing, and additional remediation initiatives may be
necessary.
56
Accordingly,
as management continues to monitor the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, the Company will continue to perform
additional procedures prescribed by management, including the use of certain manual mitigating control procedures and the employment of
additional tools and resources deemed necessary, to ensure that our future consolidated financial statements are fairly stated in all
material respects. The following planned remediation activities highlight the Company’s commitment to remediating the identified
material weaknesses:
●
Hire finance and accounting professionals with the appropriate level of experience and training necessary to develop, maintain and improve our accounting policies, procedures and internal controls, utilize third-party consultants and internal audit professionals to enhance the control environment, and continue to hire other qualified finance and accounting professionals.
●
Provide, and continue to provide, training for employees regarding their responsibilities related to the performance or oversight of internal controls.
●
Reinforce the importance of communication between the operations, accounting, and legal departments regarding key terms of, and changes or modifications to, customer, debt, equity, legal and other contracts by establishing controls requiring finance department approval of certain non-standard terms and agreements.
●
Begin the implementation of a process to reevaluate, revise and improve our Sarbanes-Oxley compliance program, including governance, risk assessment, testing methodologies and corrective action. The Company plans to enhance our risk assessment procedures and conduct a comprehensive risk assessment.
●
Develop, and continue to develop, internal control documentation over financial processes and related disclosures. The Company plans to continue to design and implement control activities to mitigate risks identified and test the operating effectiveness of such controls.
If we are not able to maintain
effective internal control over financial reporting and Disclosure Controls, or if material weaknesses are discovered in future periods,
a risk that is significantly increased in light of the complexity of our business, we may be unable to accurately and timely report our
financial position, results of operations, cash flows or key operating metrics, which could result in late filings of the annual and quarterly
reports under the Exchange Act, restatements of financial statements or other corrective disclosures, an inability to access commercial
lending markets, defaults under its credit facilities and other agreements, or other material adverse effects on our business, reputation,
results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
The
material weaknesses will not be considered remediated, however, until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time,
and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.
Changes in internal
control over financial reporting
Other than the remediation
efforts described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f))
that have occurred during the twenty-six period ended June 29, 2025, that have materially impacted, or are reasonably likely to materially
impact, our internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations
on effectiveness of controls and procedures
We
do not expect that our Disclosure Controls will prevent all errors and all instances of fraud. Disclosure Controls, no matter how well
conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the Disclosure Controls are met. Further,
the design of Disclosure Controls must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits must be considered relative
to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all Disclosure Controls, no evaluation of Disclosure Controls can provide absolute
assurance that we have detected all our control deficiencies and instances of fraud, if any. The design of Disclosure Controls also is
based partly on certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed
in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.
