Upon closing, which is anticipated in the second half of 2026, the combined company will operate as Electra AI, Inc., and is expected to remain listed on Nasdaq under a new ticker symbol.
The problem Electra solves is enormous and almost invisible. Nearly every battery on Earth is operating blind. Across the entire energy ecosystem (e.g., grid-scale storage, renewable energy, data centers, EVs, drones, space satellites, and robotics), batteries degrade in unforeseen ways, fail in unpredictable manners, and deliver only a fraction of their true potential output. The consequences are severe: fires and thermal runaway events, Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) installations leaving 30% of their value on the table, and fleets stranded because of inaccurate range estimates. When a battery fails today, you often get a fire. With Electra, the outcomes are different. Customers receive a software alert up to three months in advance; no thermal runaways; no headlines, just a fix, delivered in software.
To date, the industry's answer has been more batteries, heavier packs, and greater redundancy, exponentially increasing costs. Hardware compensating for what software could never see. A multi-trillion-dollar infrastructure managed with instrumentation unchanged for decades. The answer was never more batteries; it is, however, smarter ones.
Electra was founded in 2015 to solve this. Rooted in NASA research and forged through DOE and DOD contracts, the company built the AI Brain for Batteries™ — a unified intelligence layer that transforms dumb batteries into intelligent, software-defined assets, validated across chemistries, hardware, and scale. That is why Stellantis, BlackBerry, and Ferrari Family Investments didn't just buy the product. They bought equity in the company.
