CONTENTS
Issuance of Additional Shares in Connection with the Acquisition of Hongkong Taohaoche Limited
As previously disclosed in the Form 6-K of the Kaixin Holdings (“Kaixin” or the “Company”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 27, 2026, on August 26, 2026, the Company, Jet Sound Hong Kong Company Limited (the “Purchaser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, Hsiao-Ching Chiu (the “Seller”), and AUTOA2A. LTD. entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser agreed to acquire the entire equity interest in Hongkong Taohaoche Limited (the “Target Company”). The Company agreed to issue 10,000,000 newly issued Class A ordinary shares to the Seller as consideration (the “Consideration Shares”), which shall be held in escrow and be released subject to performance targets as set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Upon completion, the Target Company became an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
Since the execution date of the Purchase Agreement on August 26, 2026, the Company’s stock price has declined substantially, from over $5.00 per share to under $1.50 per share. The Consideration Shares have lost more than 70% of their market value.
On September 3, 2026, the board of directors of the Company approved the issuance of an additional 10,000,000 Class A ordinary shares (the “Additional Shares”) to the Seller, which shall be held in escrow and be released subject to the six-year performance targets as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, as a result of the substantial decrease in market value of the Consideration Shares.
The foregoing is only a brief description of the material terms of the Purchase Agreement and does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder. Such description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 6-K of the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 27, 2026 and is incorporated herein by reference. This content does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy these securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
