Combined with additional recent warrant exercises, the Company has received aggregate gross cash proceeds of approximately $8.1 million.

A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners is acting as the exclusive financial advisor to the Company in connection with the transaction.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the transaction for working capital, general corporate purposes, and the continued advancement of its validation vehicle manufacturing and testing phases.

The way oil and gas prices are going, a good time to be driving an EV...of course all the time is a good time to drive an EV imho.

From their email:

"Each vehicle has been built on our low-volume validation assembly line in Carlsbad, California, where trained technicians move through 14 stations using processes designed to scale. Running multiple vehicles through the line in sequence validates not only the vehicle itself, but the system required to build it consistently.

With each successive build, the team has improved cycle times, refined workflows, and discovered improvements to carry onto future vehicle builds. The results are continuous improvements to a production system that is becoming faster, more efficient, and more predictable with every vehicle built.

The validation fleet will continue to expand and move through a comprehensive testing program covering road performance, durability, safety verification, software and firmware integration, and real-world solar energy collection."

From Aptera in my in box today:
-----
The team has been steadily working through our validation plan, moving closer to initial customer deliveries and hitting some exciting milestones along the way. You have been asking for real solar data for years, and we're thrilled to finally deliver: our results exceeded expectations.



Can we generate over 4 kWh of solar energy in a single day of solar? The answer is a resounding YES!

The results speak for themselves. Across days of testing in real-world conditions, we generated between 3.6 and 4.6 kWh of solar energy per day. At Aptera's target efficiency of 100 Wh/mile, that would provide up to 46 miles of added range, straight from the sun. No plugging in. No charging station.

Want to go deeper? We published a full blog post walking through each day of testing, complete with charts, data, and detailed explanations.

Solar generation is just one piece of the puzzle, and we know you've been waiting for more. We'll be sharing additional data as our validation program continues.

If you're in Southern California, we hope to see you this Sunday! Aptera will be at the 28th Annual Art in the Village in Carlsbad on June 28, showing off some of our latest vehicles. It's a free community event featuring local artists, live entertainment, food, and shopping. We'll be right in the middle of it all, so you won't miss us.​

Great to hear this, hoping my investment returns positive results by the end of 2026, personal goal to cut bait if they don't.

Anything is possible. I think once they produce deliverable vehicles the stock could go up considerably, depending on reviews etc. Regardless, I really like the engineering involved. Also liking what I've heard about the Ford UEV as well. Slate will be delivering in 2027 as well with a $25k truck/SUV, more opportunities for entry level EV purchasers, which is a good thing to be supporting.

The only way that happens is if they ship cars.

Aptera Orders Bodies and Chassis for Its First 40 Production Vehicles
August 4, 2026


Deliveries of body and chassis components expected to begin arriving in October, supporting Aptera’s plan to reach start of production

Carlsbad, CA — August 4, 2026 — Aptera Motors Corp. (Nasdaq: SEV), a solar mobility company advancing ultra-efficient transportation, today announced that it has issued purchase orders for the major structural components of its first 40 vehicles. The orders represent a significant step in the Company’s transition from validation builds toward production.

The purchase orders cover two of the vehicle’s largest structural assemblies: the body and the chassis, including its frame and suspension. Unlike the validation vehicles Aptera built to test and refine its design, these components are intended for the Company’s first production vehicles, which are expected to include the first vehicles delivered to customers.

Deliveries of body and chassis components are expected to begin in October, supporting Aptera’s plan to reach start of production (“SOP”). The Company continues to execute on its financing plans to be able to fund the production ramp.

“Issuing purchase orders for body and chassis components intended for production vehicles is an important step as we work to move from validation to production,” said Chris Anthony, Co-CEO of Aptera. “These parts are intended for our first customer vehicles.”

Committing to these components reflects confidence in both the vehicle design and the supply chain behind it. Aptera’s engineering team has spent recent months refining the body and chassis specifications based on learnings from its validation builds, and that work is now reflected in the production vehicle parts on order. Aptera has also received and taken into inventory solar cells for more than 100 vehicles, adding to the growing list of parts the Company has secured in preparation for production.

“Seeing our body and chassis suppliers reach these milestones on parts intended for production vehicles is an encouraging sign,” said Steve Fambro, Co-CEO of Aptera. “We continue to work with focus toward the start of production.”

Aptera expects to secure the remaining components for its first vehicles in the coming months, supporting its plan to reach SOP. Additionally, the Company is working diligently to complete the necessary tests to secure final regulatory approvals to be able to sell its vehicles commercially.
