Insights

Securities Analyst

TL;DR: The filing documents a securities purchase agreement and related prospectus items but provides no financial terms or proceeds details.

The submission confirms that a previously effective Registration Statement (effective August 9, 2023), an accompanying base prospectus, and a prospectus supplement dated September 23, 2025 are being relied upon. It attaches a Securities Purchase Agreement dated July 31, 2025 and legal opinions from Ogier (Cayman) LLP. Because the filing does not disclose the economic terms, pricing, or expected use of proceeds for the transaction, the materiality to valuation or earnings cannot be assessed from this text alone.

Corporate Governance Expert

TL;DR: Corporate documentation and counsel opinions are filed; governance sign-off is evidenced but substantive deal terms are absent.

The report includes execution and counsel exhibits and is signed by the Chief Executive Officer, indicating appropriate corporate authorization for filing. The presence of counsel opinions (Exhibit 5.1/23.1) suggests legal review of the transaction, but the filing excerpt does not disclose counterparty identity beyond 'Purchaser', monetary amounts, or approvals that would allow assessment of shareholder or regulatory impact.

INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS FORM 6-K REPORT 

On July 31, 2025, Sunrise New Energy Co., Ltd. (the “Company”) entered into a certain securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the investor named therein (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell, in a registered direct offering (the “Registered Direct Offering”), 1,000,000 Class A ordinary shares of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (each a “Share,” and collectively, the “Shares”). The purchase price for each Share was $0.55.

The Registered Direct Offering closed on September 23, 2025. The Company received approximately $550,000 in gross proceeds from the Registered Direct Offering, before deducting estimated offering expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Registered Direct Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, other obligations of the parties, and termination provisions.

The Shares were offered by the Company pursuant to a registration statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-272386) (the “Registration Statement”), previously filed and declared effective by the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on August 9, 2023, the base prospectus filed as part of the Registration Statement, and the prospectus supplement dated September 23, 2025.

The foregoing summary of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by such document filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

A Copy of the opinion of Ogier (Cayman) LLP relating to the legality of the issuance and sale of the Shares, is filed as Exhibit 5.1 hereto.

This report is incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement, to be a part thereof from the date on which this report is submitted, to the extent not superseded by documents or reports subsequently filed or furnished.

This report shall not constitute an offer to sell any securities or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of any securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this report are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on the Company’s current beliefs, expectations, and assumptions regarding the future of its business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions.
