• 8.65M Shares Registered for Resale

  Amendment No. 1 registers up to 8,653,774 shares for resale by five selling stockholders — approximately 200.8% of the 4,309,319 shares outstanding as of September 10, 2026.

• Toxic Conversion Terms

  Shares come from convertible notes and Series A Preferred with variable conversion prices at 80–90% of the lowest VWAP, so the actual share count could rise substantially if the stock price declines further.

• No Proceeds to Company

  Polar Power receives no proceeds from the resales; only cash warrant exercises could bring in up to $884,850, which management would use for working capital and debt repayment.

• Nasdaq Delisting Deadline Looms

  The company must evidence compliance with Nasdaq's $2.5M stockholders' equity requirement by October 28, 2026, or face delisting.

This S-1/A registers up to 8,653,774 shares for resale by five selling stockholders — approximately 200.8% of the 4,309,319 shares outstanding as of September 10, 2026. The shares come from toxic convertible notes and Series A Preferred with variable conversion prices set at 80–90% of the lowest VWAP, meaning the actual share count could rise sharply if the stock keeps falling. The company gets no proceeds from the resales; only warrant exercises could bring in up to $884,850. Against a backdrop of a $1.8M Q2 loss, a going-concern warning, Pinnacle Bank default, and an October 28 Nasdaq deadline to fix its equity deficiency, this registration makes the overhang tradable and adds to the dilution pressure already weighing on the stock near its 52-week low.
