• Massive Resale Registration

  Registers up to 5,519,087 shares of common stock and 5,566,667 warrants (convertible into 1,056,659 shares) for resale by selling securityholders, a substantial increase from prior registrations.

• Significant Market Overhang

  The registered securities represent approximately 91.74% of outstanding common stock (93.15% assuming full warrant exercise). This substantial potential supply of shares, many acquired by selling securityholders at prices significantly below the current market price, creates a severe risk of increased volatility and price decline.

• No Direct Proceeds to Company

  Stardust Power will not receive any proceeds from the sale of these shares or warrants by the selling securityholders, except upon the uncertain exercise of warrants.

• Incorporates Prior Executive Appointment

  The filing also incorporates an 8-K from January 30, 2026, detailing the appointment of Bruce Czachor as General Counsel, Chief Compliance Officer, and Secretary.

This filing significantly expands the potential dilutive overhang on Stardust Power's stock. The registration of over 6.5 million shares and warrants for resale by existing securityholders, representing more than 90% of the company's outstanding common stock, is a critical negative development. Given the company's nano-cap status and recent "going concern" warning (from the S-1 on 2026-02-12), this massive potential supply of shares entering the market, from which the company receives no direct capital, poses a severe risk of increased volatility and price decline. This follows previous, smaller resale registrations (S-1 on 2026-02-04 and 424B4 on 2026-02-11), indicating a growing trend of existing investors seeking liquidity. The explicit warning in the filing about the potential for significant price decline due to selling pressure from securityholders who acquired shares at prices as high as $100.00 per share (for business combination) or $93.50 per share (for PIPE investors) but also as low as $0.03 per share (for Sponsor) underscores the severity of this event.
