1 Letter to Our Shareholders Q3 2025 Dear Shareholders, We had a record third quarter with more than $7 million in revenue – more than 100% growth over the second quarter. Our All-in-on-AI strategy is working remarkably. Today, I want to highlight some of the successes we’ve seen with this strategy and what it means for the future. We reached a major milestone this quarter that we expect to have far-reaching consequences across the revenue machine we described in detail during our last call. That milestone was the release of our latest version of Molecular Universe, MU-1.0. MU-1.0 is a powerful and complete end-to-end AI4Science workflow that includes 5 features: “Ask”, an agentic LLM with access to what we believe is the world’s largest database of battery-relevant literature; “Search” and “Formulate”, which we believe are the world’s largest databases of battery-relevant molecule and formulation-level properties enabled by GPU-accelerated quantum mechanics computation and machine learning-accelerated property prediction; and “Design” and “Predict”, chemistry-specific and chemistry-agonistic machine learning models that, respectively, can accurately predict battery state of health and end of life. Due to the popularity of the Enterprise tier, we also launched three sub-tiers within Enterprise to provide greater value to more Enterprise users. In addition to cloud-based Molecular Universe, we expect to launch on-premise Molecular Universe, providing greater data security to more Enterprise users. This new on-premise capability, which we will be describing in more detail in the coming months, addresses specific security and privacy needs of the world’s largest battery makers, and it will unlock a greater share of our addressable market. We are incorporating MU-1.0’s “Ask”, “Design”, and “Predict” into our ESS products deployed by UZ Energy around the world to collect data for on-site model training. This unprecedented ability for safety and health prediction, combined with reduced maintenance costs, truly helps differentiate our products and attract new customers. Since we completed the acquisition of UZ in mid-September, our ESS revenue has been growing and is already responsible for approximately 45% of our third quarter revenue. We are very excited about the revenue potential of deploying Molecular Universe to enhance our ESS products. MU-1.0’s “Ask”, “Search”, and “Formulate” are also helping our users identify several new electrolyte materials that we are commercializing. These include: To supply these materials discovered by Molecular Universe to our customers, we recently entered into a Joint Venture agreement with Hisun New Energy Materials, a leading electrolyte manufacturer with Improved low temperature rate performance of LiFePO4 Li-ion cells for ESS applications Improved cycle life for 12% silicon Li-ion cells for EV applications Improved cycle life for Li-Metal and 100% silicon Li-ion for drones and UAM applications, and many more 1. 3. 2.

2 Letter to Our Shareholders Q3 2025 150,000 tons of annual capacity to contract manufacture these materials so we stay capex-light, laying the groundwork for exciting revenue growth in the coming quarters. Another revenue opportunity we expect to grow in 2026 and beyond is in drones. A dependable supply chain of high-energy density pouch cells is extremely rare and critical to the development of the American drones industry. To better address this burgeoning market, we are leveraging our Chungju, South Korea cell factory, incorporating the latest material discoveries from Molecular Universe to meet customer demands. In terms of potential revenue from EVs, we completed B-sample line site acceptance testing this summer with one auto OEM. As a result, in 2026, we expect to start commercial supply of electrolyte materials and partner with them for cell production. Overall, it is hard for us to comprehend a more consequential period than what we have experienced over the past two quarters – particularly as it relates to delivering on the goals we outlined coming into this year. For instance, we noted we wanted to break into the ESS market in a major way. Now we’ve done so with the acquisition of UZ Energy, and the acquisition has already delivered significant revenue in 2025. We launched three versions of Molecular Universe this year. The discoveries that we and our customers have made thus far have accelerated our push into materials to supply them through the Hisun JV. We’ll have more to share on our fourth quarter call about how we expect 2026 to shape up for us, but we expect success to look like a hardware-software integrated platform with multi-prong and multi-revenue streams. As Molecular Universe, a complete AI4Science workflow SaaS platform, accelerates innovation across all battery chemistries, we are working with our JV partners to provide a dependable hardware supply chain for the cells developed from Molecular Universe. We are excited about the revenue growth potential brought by Molecular Universe and will continue to assemble the best talent, data and compute resources needed to build AI4Science for energy transition. Lastly, I want to express my gratitude for our teams who are working super hard to make all of this happen, and thanks to all of you for being on this journey with us. Just as AI4Science is completely changing other industries, Molecular Universe is now transforming all battery chemistries across all applications.

3 Letter to Our Shareholders Q3 2025 Financial Outlook Revenue for the third quarter was $7.1 million, representing a $3.6 million, or 102%, increase from the previous quarter. Our Q3 revenue was approximately a 55%-45% split between our service revenue from our automotive OEM customers to develop AI-enhanced Li-Metal and Li-ion battery materials for EV applications, and product revenue primarily from UZ Energy’s energy storage system sales. For the full-year 2025, we are updating our revenue guidance to a range of $20 million to $25 million due to UZ’s contribution going forward. Gross margins were 51% for the third quarter, which is a combination of 78% gross margin from service revenue and 15% gross margin from product revenue. As a reminder, with UZ Energy now part of SES AI, we expect gross margin variation from quarter to quarter as our service and product revenue mix will fluctuate. Our GAAP net loss for the third quarter was $20.9 million, or negative $0.06 per share. In Q2 2025, our GAAP net loss was $22.7 million or negative $0.07 per share. As of September 30, we had 365 million class A and class B shares outstanding, which were down 1.3 million from the prior quarter mainly due to the share repurchases we executed during the third quarter. In the third quarter we repurchased and cancelled 1,340,656 Class A shares for a total investment of $1.6 million, or roughly $1.20 per share. We utilized $14.3 million in cash for operations in the third quarter and exited the third quarter with a strong liquidity position of $214 million. We closed the UZ Energy acquisition in September and recognized some UZ revenue during the third quarter. We see a tremendous opportunity to grow the UZ business from approximately $10 million to $15 million in projected full-year 2025 revenue, to exponentially larger growth in the coming years as we execute our go-to-market strategy to gain market share in the $300 billion global ESS market. When we report Q4 earnings, we expect to provide a more definitive outlook on how we see the full-year 2026 revenue growth shaping up from UZ’s growth in ESS, SaaS subscriptions from MU, contributions from the Hisun JV, and the potential for the start of commercial production of electrolyte and/or battery cells from automotive OEMs, drones and robotics. The potential growth of these revenue streams, which all have different margin profiles, will be much larger than what we have experienced in 2025, but the growth isn’t linear from quarter to quarter, and the margins can vary from quarter to quarter as well. Looking ahead, we remain focused on executing our strategy. We are continuing to grow our top line while remaining financially disciplined. With substantial liquidity, we are well positioned for sustainable growth and long-term success. Qichao Hu Founder, CEO and Chairman Jing Nealis Chief Financial Officer
