Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Beam Global (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 7, 2026, the Company entered into a Share Sale and Purchase Agreement dated October 6, 2026 (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the shareholders of ScoutDI AS, a Norwegian private limited liability company (“ScoutDI”), identified therein (collectively, the “Sellers”), and Husteli AS, as representative of the Sellers (the “Sellers’ Representative”), pursuant to which the Company agreed, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of ScoutDI (the “Transaction”).

The Purchase Agreement provides that it may be terminated prior to closing by either the Company or the Sellers’ Representative if the closing has not occurred by November 4, 2026, subject to certain exceptions. The closing did not occur by such date. As a result of current unfavorable conditions in the U.S. public markets, the Company and the Sellers’ Representative determined not to extend the closing date, and on November 5, 2026, the Company and the Sellers’ Representative, on behalf of the Sellers, each delivered written notice terminating the Purchase Agreement effective immediately.

As a result of the termination, the Transaction will not be consummated, no cash consideration will be paid and no shares of the Company’s common stock will be issued to the Sellers under the Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Agreement does not provide for a termination fee, and neither the Company nor the Sellers will be required to pay a termination fee in connection with the termination. Each party will bear its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Purchase Agreement and the Transaction. Certain provisions of the Purchase Agreement, including those relating to confidentiality, notices, expenses, governing law and arbitration, survive termination in accordance with their terms.

The Company and ScoutDI intend to explore opportunities to work together through alternative arrangements, including the potential manufacture by the Company of ScoutDI’s drone systems for the U.S. market and the distribution of ScoutDI’s drone and software products to industrial and defense customers across the Company’s global network. No definitive agreement with respect to any such arrangement has been entered into, and there can be no assurance that any such arrangement will be entered into.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements regarding potential future commercial, manufacturing or distribution arrangements between the Company and ScoutDI. These statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, including the possibility that the parties may not enter into any such arrangement on acceptable terms or at all, that the anticipated benefits of any such arrangement may not be realized, and the other risks described under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings with the SEC. Actual results may differ materially, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, except as required by law.
