Summary

iPower restructured its supply and distribution agreement with GPM, its former subsidiary, through a $2 million inventory-for-payables swap. GPM assumed approximately $2 million in accounts payable owed to iPower's suppliers in exchange for an equal value of iPower's inventory. The transaction is balance-sheet neutral from a cash perspective but reduces both inventory and liabilities.

The amendment also terminates the exclusive sourcing and distribution obligations that bound the two companies under their original February 2026 agreement. This gives iPower flexibility to diversify its supplier base and distribution channels, though it also allows GPM to pursue other partners.

For retail holders, the deal represents a working capital restructuring that lightens iPower's balance sheet while trading future revenue potential from the transferred inventory for immediate relief from supplier obligations. The end of exclusivity may improve iPower's operational flexibility going forward.

GPM assumed $2,007,366.86 of accounts payable owed to the Company’s suppliers in exchange for acquiring an equal amount of the Company’s existing inventory.

This transaction reduces both iPower's inventory and accounts payable by approximately $2 million, with no net cash impact.

the Supplement releases the Company and GPM from exclusive sourcing and distribution obligations owed to one another under the SDA.

iPower and GPM are no longer bound by exclusive sourcing and distribution requirements. This gives iPower flexibility to work with other suppliers and distributors beyond GPM, potentially improving its supply chain options and competitive positioning. However, it also means GPM can pursue other distribution channels, which may affect iPower's market reach.
