The Notice does not result in the immediate delisting of the Company’s common stock from The Nasdaq Capital Market. The Nasdaq Listing Rules require listed securities to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share and, based upon the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock for the 30 consecutive business days for the period October 27 through December 8, 2023, the Company no longer meets this requirement. The Notice indicated that the Company will be provided 180 calendar days (or June 10, 2024) in which to regain compliance. If at any time during this 180 calendar day period the bid price of the Company’s common stock closes at or above $1.00 per share for a minimum of ten consecutive business days, the Nasdaq staff (the “Staff”) will provide the Company with a written confirmation of compliance and the matter will be closed. Alternatively, if the Company fails to regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2) prior to the expiration of the initial 180 calendar day period, the Company may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period, provided (i) it meets the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other applicable requirements for initial listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market (except for the Bid Price Requirement) and (ii) it provides written notice to Nasdaq of its intention to cure this deficiency during the second compliance period by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. In the event the Company does not regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2) prior to the expiration of the initial 180 calendar day period, and if it appears to the Staff that the Company will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if the Company is not otherwise eligible, the Staff will provide the Company with written notification that its securities are subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Capital Market. At that time, the Company may appeal the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel. The Company intends to monitor the closing bid price of its common stock and is considering its options to regain compliance with the Bid Price Requirement.

Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. to Release Newly Developed Solar Module - Titan Ascent Solar Technologies announced that it will soon release a newly developed solar module -- Titan -- that is optimized for use in a space environment, possessing a record power output of 17.55% efficiency. The product is expected to ship as early as First Quarter 2024. Titan will be the first standardized product specially designed for space with a specific power of 2100 W/kg, coupled with best-in-class resilience and flexibility feature. The Titan module is approximately one square foot in size, 10 grams in weight, and possesses a target output of 17 watts. Like all Ascent solar modules, Titan can be used alone or configured into an array, enabling an easy Plug & Fly(TM) approach for customers to meet mission specific power and electricity needs. Titan modules will be the standard building block for Ascent's line of Space Hardware Developer Kits (HDKs), the Company's integrated array product offerings that are available in body-mounted, foldable deployable, and rollable deployable configurations. Titan modules are approximately one-foot square sheets, representing a solution that is significantly larger than the typical rigid silicon solar PV cells which are the size of business cards. This drastic part count reduction allows integrated arrays to require less clean room labor and other resources during spacecraft assembly, integration, and test (AIT). Titan modules are also engineered for efficient program schedules with production of over 5MW of product a year out of Ascent's Thornton facility. Titan modules also scale efficiently beyond the Company's current capacity, with the ability to achieve similar production volumes via dedicated fabless production lines that can produce Titan-comprised solar arrays at the pace required by even the most ambitious megaconstellations.

Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. Increases Cell Production Efficiency in Production Trials from 10.8% to 15.2% for its CIGS Solar Technology Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. announced that it has achieved cell production efficiency of 15.2% in its CIGS solar technology, a significant increase from the 10.8% standard efficiency measured for production material in 2012. This increase is attributed to the targeted optimization of the existing Cadmium Sulfide (Cds) deposition and manufacturing processes behind the Company's CIGS technology. Parallel development efforts have been successful in the replacement of the Cds deposition in the production process. Cds is a known harsh material, which ASTI has strategically sought to shift away from, to limit hazardous production components and eliminate the need for specialty waste mitigation processes. The preliminary efficiency measurements of this next generation material (which utilizes Zinc Oxysulfide in lieu of Cds) indicate that yields are 5% to 8% higher than that of Cds, which would translate to a theoretical efficiency of 16% to 16.4%. With continued promising results such as these production trials, the Ascent team is redefining what is possible for thin-film CIGS technology efficiencies through consistent ongoing process optimization, guided by decades of manufacturing experience. These efficiency improvements reflect the confidence in Ascent's product portfolio, as well as the brand's strategic direction, growth opportunities, and leadership to execute upon its vision.
