**Carlsbad, CA – March 30, 2026** – Aptera Motors Corp. (NASDAQ: SEV) ("Aptera" or the "Company"), a solar mobility company advancing ultra-efficient transportation, today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025.

"Our fourth quarter capped a transformative year for Aptera as we transitioned to a publicly traded company and began standing up our validation assembly line," said Chris Anthony, Co-CEO of Aptera. "We are laser-focused on completing our durability testing and leveraging the $17.1 million in new capital raised in early 2026 to lock in long-lead components, as we work toward our target of getting Aptera on the road. Our goal remains simple: ensure we have the resources and manufacturing foundation to execute on our phased path to low-volume production."

*\*See "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and reconciliation table below.*

**Business Update and Liquidity**

The Company's operational focus remains on the build-out of its validation assembly line and the assembly of its validation fleet using production-intent parts.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $9.6 million in cash and cash equivalents. The Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, provides a detailed update on its liquidity and capital resources.

During the first quarter of 2026, the Company successfully raised an aggregate of approximately $17.1 million in gross proceeds, consisting of $9.0 million from a follow-on public offering closed on January 26, 2026, and an additional $8.1 million from subsequent warrant exercises, which included a $6.3 million warrant inducement transaction completed on March 12, 2026. The Company also maintains access to its equity line of credit (ELOC), subject to customary conditions. Additionally, the Company's Carlsbad assembly facility received Foreign-Trade Zone (FTZ) designation in February 2026, and the Company secured a twelve-month lease extension for its primary facility through March 31, 2028.

**Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

This press release includes Adjusted Net Loss and Adjusted Net Loss Per Share, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We define Adjusted Net Loss as GAAP net loss, excluding non-cash stock-based compensation expense and public company transition costs. Public company transition costs include legal, accounting, advisory, and other readiness expenses directly related to the Company's transition to a publicly traded entity. We believe that these non-GAAP measures, when viewed in conjunction with our GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of our core operating performance and trends, as these adjustments remove non-cash expenses and specific transitional costs that do not reflect our ongoing operations.

These non-GAAP measures are presented in addition to, and not as a substitute for, GAAP results. Non-GAAP measures have material limitations and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. We encourage investors to review these measures together with our GAAP results and the reconciliations provided.
