(a)
Historical and principal activities

As a holding company with no material operations of its own, Cenntro Inc. conducts operations through its subsidiaries in the United States, Europe, Mexico, Hong Kong, and in the People’s Republic of China, which are referred to as the PRC or China.

On March 22, 2013, Cenntro Motor Corporation (“CMC”) was registered in the State of Delaware.

On January 28, 2014, Cenntro Automotives Group Limited (“CAG BVI”) was formed in British Virgin Islands to conduct electric vehicle (“EV”) related business worldwide outside of U.S.A. On January 29, 2014, CAG BVI acquired CMC. CMC changed its name from “Cenntro Motor Corporation” to “Cenntro Motors Corporation” on August 5, 2014, and further changed from “Cenntro Motors Corporation” to “Cenntro Automotive Corporation” (“CAC”) on October 7, 2014. CAC’s operations include corporate affairs, administrative, human resources, global marketing and sales, after-market support, homologation, and quality assurance.

Cenntro Automotive Group Limited (“CAG HK”) was established by CAG Cayman on February 15, 2016 in Hong Kong. CAG HK is a non-operating, investment holding company, which conducts business through its subsidiaries in mainland China and Hong Kong.

Cenntro Electric Group, Inc. (“CEGI”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware by CAG Cayman on March 9, 2020.

Cenntro Electric Group Limited, formerly known as Naked Brand Group Limited (“NBG”), was incorporated in Australia on May 11, 2017. NBG changed its name to Cenntro Electric Group Limited on December 30, 2021, in connection with the closing of the Combination. Cenntro Electric Group Limited changed its name to Cenntro Electric Group Pty Limited (“CEGL”) on June 14, 2024.

On March 23, 2022 and January 31, 2023, CEGI entered into Share Purchase Agreements to acquire 65% and 35% of the issued and outstanding shares in Cenntro Automotive Europe GmbH (“CAE”), formerly known as Tropos Motors Europe GmbH. CAE, CEGE and Antric were fully liquidated for the six months ended June 30, 2026.

On December 16, 2022, Cenntro Electric Group (Europe) GmbH (“CEGE”) invested in Antric GmbH (“Antric”) and became a 25% shareholder of Antric. On August 31, 2023, CAE acquired the remaining 75% shares of Antric and took Antric as a subsidiary of the Company. On August 31, 2023, the Company completed the acquisition with Antric GmbH in Germany.

On June 23, 2021, the Company invested RMB2,000,000 (approximately $273,999) in Hangzhou Hezhe Energy Technology Co., Ltd. (“Hangzhou Hezhe”) to acquire 20% of its equity interest.

The commercial vehicles are designed to serve a variety of fleet and municipal organizations in support of city services, last-mile delivery and other commercial applications.

(b)
Reverse recapitalization

On December 30, 2021, the Company consummated a stock purchase transaction (the “Combination”) pursuant to that certain stock purchase agreement, dated as of November 5, 2021 (the “Acquisition Agreement”) by and among CEGL (at the time, NBG), CAG Cayman, CAC, CEGI and CAG HK. Under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, the Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization.

(c)
Redomiciliation of CEGL

On February 27, 2024, CEGL completed the redomiciliation of CEGL in accordance with the scheme implementation agreement, between CEGL and Cenntro Inc. (the “Redomiciliation”). As a result of the Redomiciliation, the jurisdiction of incorporation of the ultimate parent company of the Cenntro group of companies was changed from Australia to Nevada, and CEGL became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cenntro Inc..

In connection with the Redomiciliation, CEGL transferred its equity interests in its intermediate holding companies directly to Cenntro Inc. As a result, the operating subsidiaries that were previously held through CEGL became direct or indirect subsidiaries of Cenntro Inc., and CEGL no longer holds substantive operating assets and functions as a shell subsidiary within the Group.

The Redomiciliation was effected pursuant to a statutory scheme of arrangement under Australian law (the “Scheme”), whereby on February 27, 2024 (the “Implementation Date”), all of the issued ordinary shares of CEGL were exchanged for newly issued shares of common stock of the Company, on the basis of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) for every one ordinary shares of CEGL.
(d)
Discontinued Operations - CEGE, CAE and Cenntro EV Center Italy S.R.L

In November 2024, the Company decided to restructure its European operations by phasing out the existing subsidiary-based direct sales model and implementing a centralized dealership distribution system. This strategic shift aims to appoint qualified regional distributors with proven market penetration capabilities, thereby reducing reliance on maintaining local operational entities.

Concurrently, the Company is reallocating capital and managerial resources to accelerate growth in its core markets of North America and Asia.

As a result of this strategic shift, three European subsidiaries: CEGE, Cenntro Automotive Europe GmbH (“CAE”), and Cenntro EV Center Italy S.R.L. (“the disposal group”) were scheduled for structured dissolution in 2024. (i) The Company commenced the wind-down of Cenntro EV Center Italy S.R.L’s operations in 2025 and deregistration was completed as of January 14, 2026; (ii) CAE initiated insolvency proceedings in 2025 and the court formally opened insolvency proceedings for CAE on June 18, 2026; (iii) CEGE initiated insolvency proceedings in June 2026, and the court appointed a provisional insolvency administrator on June 9, 2026. Upon CEGE and CAE entering insolvency, the Company lost full governance control over their 25% and 75% equity interests in Antric respectively, leading to consequential deconsolidation of Antric effective June 18, 2026. However, Antric does not qualify for discontinued operations presentation standalone, as its revenue, asset scale and strategic weight are immaterial to the consolidated group and its exit does not constitute a separate strategic shift under ASC 205-20.

Accordingly, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes reflect the results the disposal group as a discontinued operation for the periods presented in accordance with ASC 210-05, Discontinued Operations represented the disposal group a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results. Further, the related current and non-current assets and liabilities associated with the disposal group are reflected as held for sale in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, all assets and liabilities of CEGE and CAE were fully derecognized following deconsolidation on June 9 and June 18, 2026, respectively, with no held-for-sale balances remaining on the balance sheet. The numbers in all of the relevant footnote disclosures are also adjusted for the current year and comparative periods. No loss was recognized on the initial measurement of the disposal group as held for sale. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, total deconsolidation loss of $4.7 million was recorded, including $2.3 million from CEGE presented in discontinued operations and $0.5 million from CAE presented in discontinued operations, and $1.9 million from Antric presented in continuing operations.

The carrying amounts of the major classes of assets and liabilities of CEGE, CAE and Cenntro EV Center Italy S.R.L. included in assets and liabilities of discontinued operations were as follows:
