Accordingly, SunCar is determined as the accounting acquirer, and its historical financial statements became the Company’s historical financial statements, with retrospective adjustments to give effect of the reverse recapitalization. All of the ordinary shares and convertible preferred shares of SunCar that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Transaction were cancelled and converted into an aggregate of 31,971,435 Class A ordinary shares and 49,628,565 Class B ordinary shares, which have been restated retrospectively to reflect the equity structure of the Company. The par value of ordinary shares changed from $0.00005 to $0.0001, the difference of $3 was adjusted retrospectively as in addition paid-in capital as of December 31, 2022.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">As of December 31, 2025, SunCar’s major subsidiaries are as follows:</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">  </p> <table cellpadding="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; border-spacing: 0px"> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom"> <td style="padding-left: 0.125in; text-indent: -0.125in; border-bottom: black 1.5pt solid"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"><b>Name</b></span></td> <td> </td> <td style="border-bottom: black 1.5pt solid; text-align: center"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"><b>Date of<br/> Incorporation</b></span></td> <td> </td> <td style="border-bottom: black 1.5pt solid; text-align: center"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"><b>Place of<br/> Incorporation</b></span></td> <td> </td> <td colspan="2" style="border-bottom: black 1.5pt solid; text-align: center"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"><b>Percentage of<br/> Effective<br/> Ownership</b></span></td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td style="border-bottom: black 1.5pt solid; text-align: center"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"><b>Principal Activities</b></span></td></tr> <tr style="background-color: #CCEEFF"> <td style="padding-left: 0.125in; text-indent: -0.125in; vertical-align: top; width: 46%"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">Sun Car Online Insurance Agency Co., Ltd.

The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace an asset.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Financial assets and liabilities of the Group primarily consist of cash, accounts receivable, short-term investments, other receivables and other current assets, long-term investment, short-term borrowings, accounts payable, other payables included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities, and warrant liabilities. As of December 31, 2024 and 2025, the carrying amounts of other financial instruments approximated to their fair values due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. For short-term borrowings and long-term borrowings, the fair value approximates their carrying value at the year-end as the fair value is estimated by used discounted cash flow, in which interest rates used to discount the bank loans approximate market rates. The warrant liabilities were measured at fair value using unobservable inputs and categorized in Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0;

The software and consulting services are highly interrelated and interdependent, as the software is a self-developed proprietary system that requires the Group's ongoing integration, data maintenance, and technical updates to remain functional and relevant to the customer's specific automobile and insurance service needs.

There are various service types including vehicle washing, waxing, maintenance, driving service and road assistance, and the Group only provides one specific service among various service types for each specific service coupon. The Group identifies each specific service coupon as a contract that establishes enforceable rights and obligations for each party. The Group charges the service fee at a fixed price per service when the service is performed. For service coupons with limited duration, the Group either charges the service fee at a fixed price per service when the service is performed or when the coupon expires, whether or not the service has been performed. The Group considers each service coupon is a distinct service that is capable of providing a benefit to the customer on its own according to ASC 606-10-25-14(a). Therefore, the Group identifies only one performance obligation under a contract, which is to provide a specific service or to stand-ready to perform a specific service within a limited duration. The Group acts as a principal as the Group controls the right to services before the services are provided to customers and the Group has the ability to direct other parties to provide the services to customers on the Group’s behalf. Specifically, the Group has the ability to choose service providers, is primarily responsible for the acceptability for the service meeting customer specifications, bears inventory risk after transfer of control of services to customers, and has the discretion in establishing the price with customers and with service providers and bears credit risk. The Group recognizes revenue in the gross amount of consideration at a point of time when the service is provided, or when the service coupon expires. The Group does not provide refunds to customers when a coupon has expired but not used.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Group’s revenues are disaggregated by timing of revenue recognition as follows:</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 17.85pt; text-align: justify"> </p> <table cellpadding="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; border-spacing: 0px;"> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom"> <td> </td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td colspan="10" style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center; border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid">For the years ended <br/> December 31,</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; font-weight: bold"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom"> <td style="text-align: center"> </td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td colspan="2" style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center; border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid">2023</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; font-weight: bold"> </td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td colspan="2" style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center; border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid">2024</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; font-weight: bold"> </td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td colspan="2" style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center; border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid">2025</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; font-weight: bold"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td style="width: 64%; text-align: left; padding-left: 0.55pt">Revenue recognized at a point of time</td><td style="width: 1%"> </td> <td style="width: 1%; text-align: left">$</td><td style="width: 9%; text-align: right">333,088</td><td style="width: 1%; text-align: left"> </td><td style="width: 1%"> </td> <td style="width: 1%; text-align: left">$</td><td style="width: 9%; text-align: right">397,005</td><td style="width: 1%; text-align: left"> </td><td style="width: 1%"> </td> <td style="width: 1%; text-align: left">$</td><td style="width: 9%; text-align: right">435,672</td><td style="width: 1%; text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; "> <td style="text-align: left; padding-bottom: 1.5pt; padding-left: 0.55pt">Revenue recognized over time</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: left"> </td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: right">30,658</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; text-align: left"> </td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: left"> </td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: right">44,892</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; text-align: left"> </td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: left"> </td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: right">53,619</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td style="padding-bottom: 2.5pt; padding-left: 0.55pt">Revenues</td><td style="padding-bottom: 4pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; text-align: left">$</td><td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; text-align: right">363,746</td><td style="padding-bottom: 2.5pt; text-align: left"> </td><td style="padding-bottom: 4pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; text-align: left">$</td><td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; text-align: right">441,897</td><td style="padding-bottom: 2.5pt; text-align: left"> </td><td style="padding-bottom: 4pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; text-align: left">$</td><td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; text-align: right">489,291</td><td style="padding-bottom: 2.5pt; text-align: left"> </td></tr> </table> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 17.85pt; text-align: justify"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><i>Contract Balances</i></p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers.

When assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, the Group has considered possible sources of taxable income including (i) future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, (ii) future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carry-forwards, (iii) future taxable income arising from implementing tax planning strategies, and (iv) specific known trend of profits expected to be reflected within the industry.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 17.85pt; text-align: justify"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return.

The Group assesses collectability by reviewing accounts receivable on a collective basis where similar characteristics exist, primarily based on similar business lines, and on an individual basis when the Group identifies specific customers with known disputes or collectability issues. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, the Group considers historical collectability based on past due status, the age of the balances, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, and other factors that may affect the Group’s ability to collect from customers.

In accordance with ASC 606-10-25-14 and 25-19, the Group identifies the insurance intermediation service as a single performance obligation. The Group has determined that this service is distinct as: (i) the insurance companies (the customers) can benefit from the distribution service on its own through the successful execution of insurance policies and the resulting premium inflows; and (ii) the Group’s promise to transfer the intermediation service is separately identifiable from other promises in the contract. The service does not involve a significant integration service, nor does it significantly modify or customize the insurance products, and it is not highly interdependent with other services provided by the Group.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Revenue is recognized at a point in time when an insurance policy becomes effective, which occurs when the signed insurance policy is in place and the premium is collected from the insured. Although the Group’s efforts are performed when the policy is sold, the criteria for contract identification under ASC 606-10-25-19 are only satisfied when the premium is received. Prior to this point, the collectability of the commission is not considered probable. Accordingly, the Group does not accrue any commission revenue prior to reperceiving related premiums. No allowance for cancellation is provided as historical cancellations have been rare and immaterial.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Principal versus Agent Assessment:</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">In accordance with ASC 606-10-55-37A and 55-39, the Group has determined that it acts as an agent in these transactions. The Group does not control the insurance policy before it is transferred to the insured. Specifically: (i) the insurance companies, not the Group, are primarily responsible for fulfilling the insurance coverage to the insured; (ii) the Group does not bear any inventory risk related to the insurance policies ; and (iii) the Group has no discretion in establishing the insurance premiums, which are set by the insurance companies. Therefore, revenue is recognized on a net basis in the amount of commission to which the Group is entitled.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><b><i>Technology service</i></b></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Group provides technology service including technical software and consulting related to automobile services and insurance, such as customer relationship management (CRM), order management, finance management and visual analysis systems.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">In accordance with ASC 606-10-25-14 and 25-19, the Group identifies the technology service as a single performance obligation. Although the service includes both software access and technical consulting/support, the Group has determined that these components are not separately identifiable within the context of the contract. The software and consulting services are highly interrelated and interdependent, as the software is a self-developed proprietary system that requires the Group's ongoing integration, data maintenance, and technical updates to remain functional and relevant to the customer's specific automobile and insurance service needs. Therefore, the software and related consulting are treated as a combined output delivered over the service period.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Group satisfies its performance obligation over time during the service period because the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits as the Group provides the access and support. Revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contractual term, typically charged at a fixed price per month. The transaction price is allocated entirely to this single combined performance obligation. The Group does not have significant variable considerations, and the payment terms generally require monthly settlement, which does not involve a significant financing component.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Principal versus Agent Assessment:</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">In accordance with ASC 606-10-55-37A and 55-39, the Group has determined it acts as the principal in these transactions. The Group controls the technical software and consulting services before they are transferred to the customer. This is evidenced by the fact that: (i) the Group is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the integrated system and ensure its functionality; (ii) the Group owns the intellectual property of the software and bears the risk of service delivery; and (iii) the Group has full discretion in establishing the price for the services.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"><b><i>Auto service</i></b></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Group defines enterprise customers as the Group’s customers and the Group sells auto service coupons to enterprise customers, which each coupon represents one specific auto service. There are various service types including vehicle washing, waxing, maintenance, driving service and road assistance, and the Group only provides one specific service among various service types for each specific service coupon. The Group identifies each specific service coupon as a contract that establishes enforceable rights and obligations for each party. The Group charges the service fee at a fixed price per service when the service is performed. For service coupons with limited duration, the Group either charges the service fee at a fixed price per service when the service is performed or when the coupon expires, whether or not the service has been performed. The Group considers each service coupon is a distinct service that is capable of providing a benefit to the customer on its own according to ASC 606-10-25-14(a). Therefore, the Group identifies only one performance obligation under a contract, which is to provide a specific service or to stand-ready to perform a specific service within a limited duration. The Group acts as a principal as the Group controls the right to services before the services are provided to customers and the Group has the ability to direct other parties to provide the services to customers on the Group’s behalf. Specifically, the Group has the ability to choose service providers, is primarily responsible for the acceptability for the service meeting customer specifications, bears inventory risk after transfer of control of services to customers, and has the discretion in establishing the price with customers and with service providers and bears credit risk. The Group recognizes revenue in the gross amount of consideration at a point of time when the service is provided, or when the service coupon expires. The Group does not provide refunds to customers when a coupon has expired but not used.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Group’s revenues are disaggregated by timing of revenue recognition as follows:</p><table cellpadding="0" style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; border-spacing: 0px;"> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom"> <td> </td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td colspan="10" style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center; border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid">For the years ended <br/> December 31,</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; font-weight: bold"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom"> <td style="text-align: center"> </td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td colspan="2" style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center; border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid">2023</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; font-weight: bold"> </td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td colspan="2" style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center; border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid">2024</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; font-weight: bold"> </td><td style="font-weight: bold; padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td colspan="2" style="font-weight: bold; text-align: center; border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid">2025</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; font-weight: bold"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td style="width: 64%; text-align: left; padding-left: 0.55pt">Revenue recognized at a point of time</td><td style="width: 1%"> </td> <td style="width: 1%; text-align: left">$</td><td style="width: 9%; text-align: right">333,088</td><td style="width: 1%; text-align: left"> </td><td style="width: 1%"> </td> <td style="width: 1%; text-align: left">$</td><td style="width: 9%; text-align: right">397,005</td><td style="width: 1%; text-align: left"> </td><td style="width: 1%"> </td> <td style="width: 1%; text-align: left">$</td><td style="width: 9%; text-align: right">435,672</td><td style="width: 1%; text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; "> <td style="text-align: left; padding-bottom: 1.5pt; padding-left: 0.55pt">Revenue recognized over time</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: left"> </td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: right">30,658</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; text-align: left"> </td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: left"> </td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: right">44,892</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; text-align: left"> </td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: left"> </td><td style="border-bottom: Black 1.5pt solid; text-align: right">53,619</td><td style="padding-bottom: 1.5pt; text-align: left"> </td></tr> <tr style="vertical-align: bottom; background-color: rgb(204,238,255)"> <td style="padding-bottom: 2.5pt; padding-left: 0.55pt">Revenues</td><td style="padding-bottom: 4pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; text-align: left">$</td><td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; text-align: right">363,746</td><td style="padding-bottom: 2.5pt; text-align: left"> </td><td style="padding-bottom: 4pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; text-align: left">$</td><td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; text-align: right">441,897</td><td style="padding-bottom: 2.5pt; text-align: left"> </td><td style="padding-bottom: 4pt"> </td> <td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; text-align: left">$</td><td style="border-bottom: Black 4pt double; text-align: right">489,291</td><td style="padding-bottom: 2.5pt; text-align: left"> </td></tr> </table><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><i>Contract Balances</i></p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers.

Results and disclosure requirements for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2022 are presented under Topic 842, while prior period amounts have not been adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historical accounting under Topic 840. Under Topic 842, lessees are required to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for most leases. At inception of a contract, the Group assesses whether a contract is, or contains, a lease. A contract is or contains a lease if it conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange of a consideration. To assess whether a contract is or contains a lease, the Group assesses whether the contract involves the use of an identified asset, whether it has the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits from the use of the asset and whether it has the right to control the use of the asset.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The main impact of the adoption of the standard is that assets and liabilities amounting to $972 and $939, respectively, were recognized beginning January 1, 2022 for leased office space with terms of more than 12 months. The Group accounts for short-term leases with terms less than 12 months in accordance with ASC 842-20-25-2 to recognize the lease payments in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term and variable lease payments in the period in which the obligation for those payments is incurred.

This assessment considers, among other matters, the nature, frequency and severity of current and cumulative losses, forecasts of future profitability, the duration of statutory carry-forward periods, its experience with tax attributes expiring unused, and its tax planning strategies. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon its ability to generate sufficient future taxable income within the carry-forward periods provided for in the tax law and during the periods in which the temporary differences become deductible. When assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, the Group has considered possible sources of taxable income including (i) future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, (ii) future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carry-forwards, (iii) future taxable income arising from implementing tax planning strategies, and (iv) specific known trend of profits expected to be reflected within the industry.</p><p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The provisions of ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” prescribe a more-likely-than-not threshold for consolidated financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken (or expected to be taken) in a tax return.

Accordingly, the Group does not expect the outcome of this dispute to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The Company has evaluated the impact of events that have occurred subsequent to December 31, 2025, through the issuance date, April 28, 2026, of the consolidated financial statements, and concluded that no other subsequent events have occurred that would require recognition in the consolidated financial statements or disclosure in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.</p> 0.4798 0.5103 <table cellpadding="0" style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; width: 100%"> <tr style="vertical-align: top"> <td style="width: 24px"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"><b>23.</b></span></td> <td><span style="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt"><b>CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE PARENT COMPANY</b></span></td></tr> </table> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0 0pt 0.25in; text-align: justify"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Pursuant to the requirements of Rule 12-04(a), 5-04(c) and 4-08(e)(3) of Regulation S-X, the condensed financial information of the parent company shall be filed when the restricted net assets of consolidated subsidiaries exceed 25 percent of consolidated net assets as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal year.
