MANAGEMENT

COMMENTARY

“The first quarter marked clear operating progress for Polar Power. We expanded gross margin to 65.7%, which includes one-time adjustment in warranty reserve, an increase of approximately 41% when compared to the same period last year. We reduced operating expenses by 22% and narrowed our net loss by 86% when compared to the same period last year.

Since quarter-end, we have taken important steps to strengthen our operating and financial position. We entered into a new settlement agreement with the landlord of our Gardena headquarters at 249 E. Gardena Blvd, enabling us to maintain operations at this facility for the next twelve months while reducing our rent from $109,000 to $55,000 monthly rate. Our goal is to combine our three separate facilities into one so we can increase our operating efficiency.

We also remain focused on regaining compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(b)(1) relating to stockholders’ equity within the applicable cure period. As of March 31, 2026, stockholders’ equity increased to $2.3 million, compared with $144,000 as of December 31, 2025. In parallel, we continue to expand our sales backlog, adding approximately $916,000 in new orders, approximately 73% of which were from customers in the international telecom market.

On May 21, 2026, we entered into a Restructuring, Implementation and Management Services Agreement with Mammoth Crest Capital, LLC (‘MCC’), effective May 19, 2026. Under the Services Agreement, MCC is obligated to lead and oversee the execution of various operational, organizational, governance, financial, and capital structure initiatives. We look forward to partnering with MCC and anticipate meaningful improvements in operational efficiency as a result of this engagement.

While meaningful challenges remain, we have been in business for 47 years and during this time we have had our ups and downs; we are executing a focused plan to convert improving operating performance into a sustainable financial position,” said Arthur Sams, Founder, President and Chief Executive Officer of Polar Power.
