Exhibit 99.1
ADS-TEC Energy Reports Financial Results for HY1 2025
NÜRTINGEN, Germany – 19, September 2025 - ADS-TEC Energy PLC (NASDAQ: ADSE) (the “Company”), a global leader in battery-based energy storage and fast-charging systems, today announced its unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the first half of the year 2025, covering the period ended June 30, 2025.
Financial Highlights
| ● | The first half of the year was slower as the legacy electric vehicle charging business experienced some delays. Importantly, no significant business opportunities have been lost. Market demand, particularly in the commercial & industrial (C&I) division, continues to demonstrate sustained strength and the Company is actively expanding its business model. |
| ● | Revenue of €14.6 million for the period. |
| ● | Strong growth in service revenues to €4.6 million in HY1 2025. Total recurring service revenues have almost tripled compared to €1.6 million in HY1 2024, through an increase in the installed base. |
| ● | The Company maintains a solid cash position of €37.9 million. |
Business Development
| ● | Exceptional growth in the C&I division, with product demand now in the low hundred million euros in potential gross bookings – up from virtual non-existent levels last year. This is fueled by powerful secular growth drivers such as rising energy demand (AI, electrification) and increasing grid constraints. |
| ● | Battery-based intelligent flexibility lies at the core of ADS-TEC Energy’s business model, ideally positioning the Company to capture the significant boom ahead in BESS. |
| ● | Significant progress has been made in building a recurring revenue model. Multi-revenue services – including energy management features (e.g. trading) and advertising – scale naturally with the expanding network and installed base in Own & Operate. |
| ● | Over 100 Own & Operate locations are already secured in the initial phase, with battery-buffered chargers now on track to being installed at blue-chip retailers. Attractive Own & Operate opportunities are also emerging within C&I. |
| ● | About eight months ago, ADS-TEC Energy began developing one of the largest BESS projects worldwide. The Company has already received unanimous approval for this project from the city council responsible, as well as positive feedback regarding the connection to the extra-high voltage power grid. This large-scale BESS project will be implemented in southern Germany over several years until completion and will boast impressive figures of around 900 MW power and around 1.8 GWh capacity. The Company expects to complete both the project development of and financing for the project in 2026. |
The acting mayor of the local community and Thomas Speidel, CEO of ADS-TEC Energy, are delighted that one of Europe’s largest storage projects has received unanimous approval from the municipal council and that the regulatory approval process has already begun. With a flexibility of 900 MW and 1.8 GWh, significant contributions can be made to our energy system and society as a whole. Local solar fields will also optimize the plants’ own consumption. Once completed, the project is planned to run for several decades.
| ● | Combining large-scale BESS with full or partial ownership, intelligent operation, and long-term services has the potential to generate highly attractive returns, substantially strengthening the group’s cash flow profile going forward. |
Building on Success
| 1. | Expect deferred demand of charging business to surge in the coming quarters, fueled by continued EV adoption and severe deficit of charging infrastructure. We also foresee fleet and corporate car demand to drive EV market growth in 2025 and beyond. |
| 2. | Service revenues are anticipated to grow further strong. |
| 3. | Expect established robust C&I sales pipeline to begin translating into meaningful sales. |
| 4. | Own & Operate business will start contributing to the Company’s revenues. |
In line with its strategic priorities to implement a robust long-term capital structure, the Company is assessing options to refinance its existing convertible notes (which may include bonds, bilateral loans or other debt facilities).

Forward-looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believes,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements regarding the delivery and installation of the PowerBoosters, our expectations with respect to future performance and the anticipated timing of certain commercial activities.

Accounting policies
| 2. | Accounting policies |
| 2.1 | Basis of preparation |
Applied IFRS
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of ADSE for the six months ended June 30, 2025, have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting. They do not include all disclosures that would otherwise be required in a complete set of financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s last annual financial statements as at and for the years ended December 31, 2024 (“last annual financial statements”). However, selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in ADSE’s financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.
ADSE’s interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The reporting period is the six months ended June 30, 2025 and six months ended June 30, 2024. The interim financial statements are presented in Euro, which is the functional currency of ADSE. All amounts have been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise indicated. In some cases, rounding could mean that values in this report do not add up to the exact sum given or percentages do not equal the values presented.
| 2.2 | Material uncertainty regarding the ability to continue as a going concern |
Management assessed the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern and evaluated whether there are certain conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, that raise
substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern using all information available about the future, focusing
on the twelve-month period after the issuance date of the financial statements. Historically, the Company has funded its operations primarily
through capital raises and with loans from shareholders. Since the inception the Company has incurred recurring losses and negative cash
flows from operations including net losses of kEUR
The Company has improved the cash flow from operating
activities from kEUR -
Management of the Company agreed to issue (i)
senior secured convertible notes in the aggregate original principal amount of kUSD
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had outstanding
shareholder loans in a nominal amount of kUSD
For future growth and expansion in other geographical areas such as the U.S. management targets to raise additional equity and debt if required. The Management and its advisers are constantly monitoring the relevant equity and debt capital markets which are important to the company.
9
Accounting policies
There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in achieving its operational and strategic plans, that any additional financing will be available in a timely manner or on acceptable terms.
The Company’s management deems a successful business development and an improvement of cash flow generation and operating result to be very likely. In addition, the financial resources have significantly improved compared to the previous year as a result of the recent issue of convertible notes and the extended credit line. Nevertheless, based on its recurring losses from operations since inception, the Company has concluded that there is still substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern as cash flows generated by its operating activities may deviate significantly from the company’s forecast and securing additional financing is uncertain. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.
| 2.3 | New accounting standards and interpretations |
ADSE applied all the effective standards and interpretations issued by the IASB and the IFRS IC for preparation of the consolidated financial statements if their application was required for annual periods beginning on or after January 01, 2025. However, none of the new accounting standards impacts ADSE as they are either not relevant to ADSE’s activities or did not require accounting which is inconsistent with ADSE’s current accounting policies.
New accounting standards and amendments to standards or interpretations effective as of January 01, 2025:
| Standard | Name | Effective date | ||
| IAS 21 |
The standards and amendments to standards and interpretations below have been published by the IASB but are not mandatorily effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 01, 2025 and therefore have not been early adopted in these consolidated financial statements by ADSE.
| Standard | Name | Effective date | ||
| IFRS 9 & IFRS 7 | ||||
| IFRS 9 & IFRS 7 | ||||
| IFRS 18 | ||||
| IFRS 19 |
On April 09, 2024, the IASB published IFRS 18 – Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements which is effective for periods beginning on or after January 01, 2027. ADSE is currently analyzing the impact expected from the initial application of IFRS 18. Other accounting standards issued by the IASB that are not yet applied or that become effective in the future are not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.

ADSE concluded shareholder loan agreements with various lenders on August 18, 2023, which were amended and restated on August 26, 2024. In addition, three further agreements were concluded on August 26, 2024. Pursuant to the loan agreements, ADSE US and ADSE GM have agreed to issue lender warrants which will be issued by ADSE Holdco as Irish guarantor to the respective lenders and subscribed by ADSE US resp. ADSE GM. At initial recognition, the warrants had a higher fair value than the shareholder loans, which generated a day one loss. As this day one loss is based on unobservable inputs, it needs to be deferred and recognized until maturity to the extent that it arises from a change in a factor (including time) that market participants would take into account when pricing the liability.
The amount recognized on the balance sheet on June 30, 2025 has declined significantly as compared to December 31, 2024 due to amortization over time and in addition due to amortization following the repayment of shareholder loans in the first half of the financial year 2025 prior to maturity.
Other accrued items related to lender warrants refer to warrants for which the exercise conditions were not met as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 since the related shareholder loans were not drawn. The fluctuation results from foreign currency effects.
