Form 20-F ☒ Form 40-F ☐

On September 30, 2026, ADS-TEC ENERGY PLC (the “Company”) reported its financial and operational results as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2026. The Company’s unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are attached as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 hereto, respectively.

This 6-K and the accompanying exhibits are hereby incorporated by reference into the Company’s registration statements on Form F-3 (File No. 333-262281, 333-276788, 333-284850) and Form S-8 (File No. 333-263153), including all amendments thereto, filed with the SEC, to be a part thereof from the date on which this report is submitted, to the extent not superseded by documents or reports subsequently filed or furnished.

This Form 6-K includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The Company’s actual results may differ from its expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believe,” “hope,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include the Company’s expectations with respect to future performance and involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside the Company’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause such differences include but are not limited to risks and uncertainties incorporated by reference under “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Form 20-F (SEC File No. 001-41188) filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 15, 2026, and in the Company’s other filings with the SEC. The Company cautions that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive. The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. The Company does not undertake or accept any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement is based.
