PART II - RULES 12b-25 (b) AND (c)

If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate)

	(a)	The reasons described in reasonable detail in Part III of this form could not be eliminated without unreasonable effort or expense;
☒	(b)	The subject annual report, semi-annual report, transition report on Form 10-K, Form 20-F, 11-K or Form N-CEN or Form N-CSR, or portion thereof, will be filed on or before the fifteenth calendar day following the prescribed due date; or the subject quarterly report of transition report on Form 10-Q or subject distribution report on Form 10-D, or portion thereof will be filed on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date; and
	(c)	The accountant's statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

PART III - NARRATIVE

State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-CEN, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof could not be filed within the prescribed time period.

Beam Global (the “Company”) is unable to timely file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, because the compilation, dissemination, review and finalization of the information required to be presented in the report could not be completed within the prescribed time period without unreasonable effort or expense for the following reasons:

As previously disclosed, the Company consummated a strategic acquisition of a company based in Serbia on October 20, 2023. Because the acquisition closed near the end of 2023, the Company requires additional time and effort to perform purchase price allocation related work before finalizing the acquisition related accounting.

The Company expects to file the Form 10-K within the fifteen-calendar day grace period, as provided by Rule 12b-25 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

(2)	Have all other periodic reports required under section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 during the preceding 12 months or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such report(s) been filed? If the answer is no, identify report(s).
	☒ Yes ☐ No
(3)	Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof?
	☒ Yes ☐ No

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

The Company expects to report that (i) its revenues increased 206% to $67.4 million compared to $22.0 million for 2022 and (ii) it has cash of $10.4 million at December 31, 2022, compared to cash of $1.7 million at December 31, 2022. In addition, the Company believes it will have a slight positive gross margin for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to a $1.7 million gross loss in 2022. The amounts reported above are still under review by the Company and may differ once reported in the Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed by the Company.
