5.9M Conversion Shares Registered for Resale
Up to 5,904,339 Class A shares issuable on conversion of the Secured SPA Notes (1,600,000), March Unsecured Notes (1,833,751) and July Unsecured Notes (2,470,588) are being registered for six selling stockholders.
-
No Proceeds to the Company
All shares are sold for the holders' accounts, so Faraday Future receives no proceeds and bears registration costs, including a $165.39 SEC fee on 2,970,284 newly registered shares at $0.64.
-
Overhang Versus Share Count
The registered block compares with 11,881,692 Class A shares outstanding as of October 16, 2026, a large potential supply increase if the notes convert and holders sell.
-
Floor Prices Far Above Market
Secured SPA notes convert at $0.3882 with a $23.292 floor, while the March and July notes carry $5.00 floors. With the stock at $0.6251, floor-breach events can trigger cash redemption demands the company may struggle to meet.
Analysis · FFAI · Manufacturing
This is a resale registration, not a new capital raise, so the company gets nothing from these sales. What matters is that 5,904,339 shares underlying three convertible note deals (May 2026 secured notes, March 2025 and July 2025 unsecured notes) become freely tradable for six institutional holders. Against 11,881,692 Class A shares outstanding as of October 16, 2026, that is roughly half the current share count again hitting the market as notes convert, and the stock already trades near its 52-week low at $0.6251, with a going-concern warning and only $11.2M of unrestricted cash per the Q2 10-Q. The Secured SPA notes carry a $0.3882 conversion price and a $23.292 floor, while the March and July notes carry $5.00 floors. All sit far above today's price, so the floor-breach cash redemption provisions are the real pressure point.
