Approximately $263 million of gross equity raised in support of FPUSA
Expected investment, together with approximately 75% loan-to-value project debt, is expected to support more than $1 billion of deployable project capital
FPUSA has approximately 16 GWh of pipeline opportunities with approximately 1.8 GWh under construction or expected to shortly reach notice to proceed
PITTSBURGH, Pa., July 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc. (NASDAQ: EOSE) (“Eos” or the “Company”), America’s leading innovator in designing, manufacturing, and providing zinc-based long duration energy storage (LDES) systems sourced and manufactured in the United States, today announced the expected initial capitalization of Frontier Power USA (“FPUSA”), the Company’s joint venture with Cerberus Capital Management established to develop, finance, own and operate long-duration energy storage projects utilizing Eos technology.
The expected initial capitalization includes proceeds from Eos’ rights offering, which expired on July 21, 2026 and raised gross proceeds of approximately $37.7 million as well as its previously announced equity offering. The rights offering enabled holders of its common stock and holders of its warrants to purchase common stock issued on April 14, 2023, May 17, 2023, December 19, 2023 and November 21, 2025 as of 5:00 pm New York time on July 1, 2026, to participate on a pro rata basis. By aligning institutional capital with existing stockholders, Eos broadened participation while establishing the equity foundation necessary to launch FPUSA at scale.
“When we announced Frontier Power USA, we set a target of approximately $250 million in equity raised to capitalize the platform,” said Joe Mastrangelo, Eos Chief Executive Officer. “Today that target is expected to be exceeded, funded through our rights offering and commitments from Hudson Bay Capital and Cerberus Capital Management. I exercised my rights in this offering, along with other members of our Board and management team, because we believe this capital structure positions Eos for sustained growth and long-term shareholder value.”
With the completion of the rights offering, Eos has secured the capital necessary to fund its investment in FPUSA which, together with the previously announced investment from Hudson Bay Capital Management and the commitment from Cerberus Capital Management results in an expected gross proceeds raised above the approximately $250 million aggregate equity target established when the joint venture was first announced. FPUSA is expected to have approximately $263 million of gross proceeds raised from three holders: approximately $113 million from Eos through its rights offering and previously announced offering, $100 million from Cerberus Capital Management, and $50 million from Hudson Bay. Along with a broad financing package expected to be available to FPUSA, this equity base is expected to support more than $1 billion of deployable project capital.
Project financing has historically favored incumbent technologies with decades of operating history and established lending markets. FPUSA addresses that barrier directly. The platform provides the capital and ownership structure needed to move Eos technology from late-stage development into construction and operation at scale.
FPUSA has a pipeline totaling approximately 16 GWh of opportunities. Approximately 5.0 GWh has been purchased, selected or is under active diligence for inclusion within the platform, including approximately 1.8 GWh purchased or selected that are under construction or approaching notice to proceed. These projects are expected to support equipment deliveries and project revenue through 2026 and into 2027, while establishing the foundation for future deployment.
Upon closing, FPUSA is expected to fund project development, equipment procurement, construction and long-term ownership of energy storage assets utilizing Eos technology. The initial capitalization is expected to close in early August, subject to customary closing conditions.

Forward-looking statements are based on our management’s beliefs, as well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, them. Because such statements are based on expectations as to future results and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected.
