THE COMPANY THE COMPANY
Nature of Operations
Factorial Energy Inc. (“Factorial”, the “Company”, or “we”), formerly known as Cartesian Growth Corporation III (“CGC”), is a developer and manufacturer of advanced battery energy storage technologies and solid-state battery (“SSB”) technology. The technologies developed are expected to create a more sustainable future with high-performance batteries for electric vehicles, homes, and critical applications.
de-SPAC Transaction
On December 17, 2025, CGC, Fenway MS, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”), and Factorial Inc. (“Legacy Factorial”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as amended, the “BCA”). CGC, a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”) was listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the ticker symbol “CGCT”.
On June 5, 2026 (the "Closing Date"), the Merger Sub, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CGC, merged with and into Legacy Factorial, with Legacy Factorial surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of CGC (the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger, CGC was renamed Factorial Energy Inc. The Company became listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the new ticker symbol “FAC” (“de-SPAC Transaction”) and subsequently upgraded to the Nasdaq Global Market (together with the Nasdaq Capital Market, “Nasdaq”). The Company received gross proceeds of approximately $112.1 million in connection with the de-SPAC Transaction and the sale of a private placement (the “PIPE Financing”) of Class A ordinary shares of CGC, par value $0.0001 per share (the “CGC Class A Shares”), prior to the payment of transaction expenses (“de-SPAC and PIPE Proceeds”) of $20.1 million.
As discussed in Note 3 - Reverse Recapitalization, the de-SPAC Transaction was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization with Factorial being the accounting acquirer, and CGC identified as the acquired company for accounting purposes. Accordingly, prior to the Closing Date, all historical financial information presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements represents the balances and activity of Legacy Factorial.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting standards generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information as organized in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) administrated by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). The accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2026, the interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and Stockholders’ Equity (Deficit) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, and the interim Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, are unaudited. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited annual consolidated financial statements and, in management’s opinion, include adjustments consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, excluding the de-SPAC Transaction described in Note 3 - Reverse Recapitalization, necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2026 and its result of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year or any other period.
These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in the Company’s audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, included in the proxy statement/prospectus filed by CGC on May 6, 2026. The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those disclosed in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The disclosures provided herein include only those policies that have been newly adopted or updated during the interim period, if any.
Prior to the receipt of the de-SPAC and PIPE Proceeds, the Company determined that its existing liquidity was not sufficient to fund operations for at least twelve months from the date of issuance of its audited annual consolidated financial statements, which raised substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception. The Company expects it will continue to incur significant costs including research and development expenses related to its ongoing operations until it successfully develops a commercial product and achieves revenues adequately to support the Company’s operations. However, Factorial believes that its cash on hand, including the net proceeds from the de-SPAC and PIPE Proceeds, will be
sufficient to meet its working capital and capital expenditure requirements for a period of at least twelve months from the date of this filing. Accordingly, management has concluded that the substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has been alleviated. Factorial may, however, need additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other developments, including unanticipated delays in negotiations with Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEMs”) and tier-one automotive suppliers or other suppliers, supply chain challenges, competitive pressures, and regulatory or permitting developments, among other possible developments. To the extent that Factorial’s current resources are insufficient to satisfy its cash requirements, Factorial may need to seek additional equity or debt financing. If the financing is not available, or if the terms of financing are less desirable than Factorial expects, Factorial may be forced to decrease its level of investment in product development or scale back its operations.
