Summary

Smart Powerr Corp. closed a $1 million secured debt financing with Streeterville Capital on April 10, 2026, netting $1 million cash against a $1.05 million note after discounts and fees.

The 24-month note carries 8% interest and includes aggressive terms: the lender can demand monthly redemptions of up to $200,000 starting in six months, and penalty provisions allow the lender to increase the debt balance by up to 25% if certain trigger events occur. Uncured triggers become defaults that accelerate the entire debt and double the interest rate to 18%.

The deal contemplates up to $9 million in additional financing through two more notes, with the largest ($8 million) held in a controlled account at a newly formed subsidiary. The company also accepted restrictive covenants limiting its ability to issue certain types of securities without lender consent, particularly those with variable pricing or anti-dilution features. Retail investors should monitor whether the company draws the additional $9 million and watch for any trigger events or defaults that could substantially increase the debt burden. The lender's redemption rights starting in October 2026 will create near-term cash flow pressure.
