Summary

Alternus Clean Energy is registering 157.1 million shares for resale by existing securityholders via conversion of Series E and F preferred stock. This is a secondary offering only — the company receives no proceeds. The shares will be sold by 16 holders who received the preferred stock in exchange for debt extensions, advisory services, and interest forgiveness, not for cash.

The company is in severe financial distress. It reported a $7.3 million net loss in 2025 on zero revenue after selling all its operating solar parks during 2024. Cash fell to $32 thousand at year-end while $16.1 million in debt came due, with multiple notes already in default. Management states substantial doubt exists about the ability to continue as a going concern without new financing that has not yet closed.

The auditor included a going-concern qualification in the audit report. Two consecutive reverse stock splits (1-for-25 in October 2024, then 1-for-200 in September 2025) reduced the share count by a combined factor of 5,000. The company pivoted from European utility solar to U.S. wind-powered microgrids through a joint venture (EverOn Energy) formed in September 2025, but the new model has generated no revenue. The CEO holds super-voting preferred stock giving him controlling voting rights. In October 2024, bondholders seized the company's Romanian subsidiary after it breached all three bond covenants, eliminating the majority of operating assets. The company operates with only 10 employees globally and faces reduced tax credits under the Trump administration.

Common stock offered by the selling securityholders

Up to 157,140,000 shares of our common stock consisting of: (a) up to 6,840,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series E Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series E Pref”), and (b) up to 150,300,000 shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series F Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series F”).

This is a secondary offering by selling securityholders, not a primary offering by the company. The 157,140,000 shares are issuable upon conversion of two series of preferred stock (Series E and Series F). Because these are secondary shares, proceeds go to the selling securityholders, not to Alternus Clean Energy.

a 1-for25 reverse stock split of our common stock which became effective for legal and accounting purposes on October 11, 2024, and a 1-for-200 reverse stock split of our common stock which became effective for legal and accounting purposes on September 5, 2025

The company executed two consecutive reverse stock splits within 11 months: 1-for-25 in October 2024 and 1-for-200 in September 2025, a combined 1-for-5,000 reduction. Reverse splits typically signal distressed stock price levels and can indicate prior shareholder dilution or compliance issues with exchange listing requirements.

Added Employee headcount high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

We currently have 10 employees; 2 are located at the Company’s headquarters in New York, 1 is located remotely elsewhere in the United States, 5 are located in Dublin, Ireland, and 2 are located elsewhere in Europe.

The company operates with only 10 employees globally to execute its energy transition platform strategy. This minimal headcount for a company pursuing project development, financing, and asset management across multiple geographies suggests heavy reliance on partners or contractors and limited internal operational capacity.

Added EverOn Energy joint venture high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

we have formed EverOn Energy (‘‘EverOn’’), a joint venture with Hover Energy LLC (‘‘Hover Energy’’), to deliver wind-powered clean energy microgrids to corporations and other facility owners across the United States and United Kingdom.

The company's near-term strategy centers on a newly formed joint venture, EverOn Energy, combining Hover Energy's compact wind turbine technology with Alternus's development and financing capabilities. The prospectus describes this as the company's primary vehicle for entering the microgrid market, making execution dependent on successful partnership integration and Hover Energy's technology performance.

Added Business model high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

Solutions are delivered under long-term Power Purchase Agreements (“PPAs”) or Energy-as-a-Service (“EaaS”) contracts, typically with terms of up to 25-years and annual escalators, at rates below what customers currently pay, requiring no upfront capital expenditure from the customer.

EverOn's revenue model relies on 25-year PPAs and EaaS contracts with annual price escalators, priced below customers' current electricity rates. This capital-intensive model requires the company to finance and own the energy infrastructure upfront while collecting payments over decades, creating significant financing needs and long-term execution risk before achieving positive cash flow.

All shares of our common stock offered under this prospectus are being registered for the account of the selling securityholders and we will not receive any proceeds from the resale of the Shares by the selling securityholder.

We cannot assure you that we will achieve or maintain profitability and our auditor has expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

The company states it cannot assure profitability and that its auditor has expressed substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The company needs to raise additional working capital to continue normal operations and may not generate sufficient revenue to offset operating expenses.

Added Debt level high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

As of December 31, 2025, we had $6.2 million in outstanding short-term borrowing.

The company discloses $6.2 million in outstanding short-term borrowing as of December 31, 2025, and states it is likely to continue to be highly leveraged. This substantial indebtedness could limit flexibility, increase vulnerability to adverse conditions, and place the company at a competitive disadvantage.

Added Government subsidy and IRA changes high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

On January 20, 2025 President Trump was inaugurated and his administration reduced the amount of ITCs or PTCs available to us and/or our tax equity partners.

The Trump administration reduced the amount of investment tax credits (ITCs) or production tax credits (PTCs) available to the company and its tax equity partners. This could require the company to adjust terms of future tax equity partnerships or seek alternative funding sources, potentially having a material adverse effect on the business.

Added Solis Bond default and asset loss high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

For example, our prior subsidiary, Solis Bond Company DAC, breached all three financial covenants under its bond terms. As such, Solis was unable to fully repay the Solis Bond by its maturity date (as extended), and Solis’ bondholders transferred ownership of Solis and all of its subsidiaries to the bondholders. This resulted in the majority of our operating assets and related revenues being eliminated and are no longer able to book the associated EBITDA. This has had a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Alternus disclosed that its prior subsidiary Solis Bond Company DAC breached all three financial covenants under its bond terms, failed to repay the bond at maturity, and bondholders took ownership of Solis and all its subsidiaries. This resulted in the elimination of the majority of Alternus' operating assets and related revenues, and the company can no longer book the associated EBITDA. The filing states this has had a material adverse effect on results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition.

Added Reciprocal tariffs and trade barriers high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

On April 2, 2025, the U.S. President announced a 10% “baseline” reciprocal tariff on nearly all U.S. trading partners, effective April 5, 2025, and additional, higher reciprocal tariffs on specific countries, effective April 9, 2025. On April 9, 2025, the U.S. President paused the additional, higher tariffs on most countries for 90 days. However, the U.S. President raised the tariff on China. As of April 16, 2025, the 10% “baseline” reciprocal tariff applies to all countries other than China, Canada, Mexico, and countries listed under “Column 2” of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, such as Russia and North Korea. As it pertains to the countries where we manufacture solar modules, the additional, country-specific tariffs would have applied to Vietnam, India, and Malaysia. If the additional, higher tariffs on imports from these countries go into effect, it would increase the costs of the solar modules manufactured in these countries with respect to our U.S. market.

The U.S. imposed a 10% baseline reciprocal tariff on nearly all trading partners effective April 5, 2025, and announced additional higher tariffs on specific countries (paused for 90 days on most countries but raised on China). Alternus manufactures solar modules in Vietnam, India, and Malaysia; if the additional higher tariffs on these countries go into effect, it would increase the costs of modules manufactured there for the U.S. market. This creates pricing and margin pressure for Alternus' U.S. sales.

Added AD/CVD final determinations on solar products high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

On April 21, 2025, the USDOC announced the final determinations in the AD/CVD investigations, with final rates ranging from de minimis to over 3,400%, depending on the particular foreign producer.

The U.S. Department of Commerce announced final determinations in antidumping and countervailing duty investigations on solar cells and panels from Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam, with final duty rates ranging from de minimis to over 3,400% depending on the producer. These duties apply to countries where Alternus may source or manufacture products, potentially increasing costs or limiting supply-chain options for the U.S. market.

Added Tariff escalation and trade restrictions high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

On April 9, 2025, President Trump increased tariffs for Chinese goods to 125% and subsequently to 145%, while the tariffs announced on April 2, 2025 for all other countries was reduced to a baseline rate of 10% for the next 90 days.

The company faces tariffs on Chinese goods reaching 145% and a 10% baseline on most other countries. These tariffs apply to solar modules, inverters, power optimizers, aluminum extrusions, and steel components used in renewable energy systems. The company states it is evaluating the impact but does not believe 2025 tariffs will have a material adverse effect, though actual impact depends on duration, scope changes, and countermeasures.

Added AD/CVD investigation on solar modules high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

The preliminary tariff rates vary from below 1% to almost 300%, depending on the relevant company.

An antidumping and countervailing duty investigation on crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells and modules from Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam has preliminary tariff rates ranging from below 1% to almost 300%. The company states it has seen projects in its order book delayed as a result of this investigation, and affirmative determinations would adversely affect its business.

Added Revenue collapse high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

Revenue for continuing operations decreased by $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 as there were no revenue generating facilities in operation during 2025 following de-consolidation or sale of our utility operating parks as part of the group restructuring activities and refocus on microgrid energy facilities going forward.

Revenue from continuing operations fell to zero in 2025 from $0.3 million in 2024, a 100% decline. The company sold all its operating solar parks during 2024 and generated no revenue in 2025 as it pivoted to a microgrid business model that has not yet produced revenue.

The company reported a net loss of $7.3 million in 2025 from continuing operations, compared to a net loss of $24.8 million in 2024. The 2024 net income of $21.1 million was driven entirely by a $53.5 million gain on sale of discontinued operations (the Romanian parks), masking a $24.8 million loss from continuing operations. In 2025, with no asset sales of that magnitude, the company posted a $7.3 million net loss.

Added Asset sales and disposal gains high

On March 25, 2025, one of the Company’s subsidiaries, AEG MH02, entered into a Share Purchase Agreement with Alternus Energy Group Plc, a related party, for the sale of the entire issued share capital of Alt Spain Holdco S.l.u., including all of its subsidiaries: ALT Spain 03, S.L.U., ALT Spain 04, S.L.U. and New Frog Projects SL, for a total consideration of €10. In accordance with ASC 360, the Company removed the net assets of the disposal group and recognized a gain of $3.6 million upon closing the sale in March 2025. ... On May 7, 2025, the Company sold AEG MH 02 Limited (“MH02”) and all its subsidiaries to two buyers. In accordance with ASC 360, the Company removed the net assets of the disposal group and recorded a gain on the sale of approximately $11.9 million and removed approximately $18.3 million in debt and payables related to MH02’s activities.

The company sold its Spanish subsidiaries to a related party for €10 (recognizing a $3.6 million gain) and sold MH02 and its subsidiaries for an undisclosed price (recognizing an $11.9 million gain and removing $18.3 million in debt). These asset sales generated $15.5 million in disposal gains in 2025, partially offsetting operating losses, but left the company with no revenue-generating assets.

Added Business model pivot high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

Alternus Clean Energy, Inc. is a specialized energy transition platform dedicated to developing, owning, and operating decentralized, onsite clean energy solutions for commercial and industrial customers across the United States and the United Kingdom. The Company aims to deliver 24/7 energy independence to its customers through wind-powered microgrids and complementary energy technologies, that integrate compact wind turbines, solar, and battery storage, bypassing grid constraints and providing reliable, clean power directly at the point of consumption.

The Company's primary commercial vehicle is EverOn Energy, a joint venture formed with Hover Energy LLC, through which it develops and operates Wind Powered Microgrids™ for Blue-Chip Clients across four high-value verticals: big box retail, real estate, education, and manufacturing.

The company pivoted from owning utility-scale solar parks in Europe to developing wind-powered microgrids for U.S. commercial customers through a joint venture (EverOn Energy). The new model targets 25-year Energy-as-a-Service contracts with no upfront customer capex. Management projects EverOn will reach EBITDA positive in 2027 and cash flow positive in 2028, but the company generated zero revenue in 2025 and faces a going-concern doubt.

Added Going-concern doubt and liquidity crisis high

Added in current filing · verify on EDGAR →

we have experienced recurring operating losses, generated negative cash flows from operations and have limited cash resources as of December 31, 2025 which, together with our current level of indebtedness, represent the existence of conditions that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months from the issuance of this report, without additional financing.

The company discloses substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. As of December 31, 2025, the company has only $32 thousand in cash and cash equivalents, $16.1 million in total debt (all classified as current maturities), and has generated recurring operating losses and negative cash flows from operations. Management states that proposed financing initiatives (a $10M PIPE investment term sheet and a $50M equity line of credit preliminary term sheet) have not been completed and remain subject to uncertainties outside the company's control, so these plans do not alleviate the substantial doubt.

Net loss for continuing operations decreased by $17.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024.

The company reports that net loss from continuing operations decreased by $17.4 million year-over-year. The MD&A states the company reduced loss from continuing operations from $24.9 million in 2024 to $7.3 million in 2025. The improvement was driven by a $15.5 million gain on disposal of assets, $3.7 million reduction in impairment and development costs, $4.6 million (52%) reduction in interest charges, and $4.0 million (33%) reduction in selling, general, and administrative costs. These gains were partially offset by a $3.2 million loss on extinguishment of debt and a $4.0 million loss on movement in fair value of convertible notes.
