Registration. No. 333-276329

PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

(To the Prospectus dated June 24, 2024)

5,000,000 Shares of Common Stock

Warrants to Purchase up to 5,000,000 Shares of Common Stock

Up to 5,000,000 Shares of Common Stock Issuable upon Exercise of Warrants

American Battery Technology Company (the “Company,” “ABAT,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is offering on a best efforts basis 5,000,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a public offering price of $1.00 per share, with accompanying warrants to purchase up to 5,000,000 shares of the Common Stock (the “Warrants”). The shares of Common Stock and Warrants are immediately separable and will be issued separately in this offering, but must be purchased together in this offering. This prospectus supplement also relates to the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants.

The public offering price for each share of Common Stock and accompanying Warrant is $1.00. Each Warrant will have an exercise price of $1.10 per share and will be immediately exercisable. The Warrants will expire on the 5-year anniversary of the original issuance date.

We collectively refer to the shares of Common Stock, the Warrants and the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants as the “securities.”

The securities will be offered at a fixed price and are expected to be issued in a single closing. We expect that the closing of the offering will occur on or about December 23, 2024 but no later than one trading day after we price the securities offered hereby. When we price the securities, we will simultaneously enter into securities purchase agreements relating to the offering with those investors who so choose. The offering will settle delivery versus payment (“DVP”). That is, on the closing date, we will issue the shares of Common Stock directly to the account(s) at the Placement Agent (as defined below) identified by each purchaser; upon receipt of such shares, the Placement Agent shall promptly electronically deliver such shares to the applicable purchaser, and payment therefor shall be made by the Placement Agent (or its clearing firm) by wire transfer to us.

The Common Stock is listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “ABAT.” On December 18, 2024, the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on Nasdaq was $0.88 per share. There is no established public trading market for the Warrants and we do not expect a market to develop for the Warrants. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be limited. In addition, we do not intend to list the Warrants on Nasdaq, any other national securities exchange, or any other trading system.

We have engaged A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners (whom we refer to herein as “AGP” or the “Placement Agent”) to act as our exclusive placement agent in connection with the securities offered by this prospectus. The Placement Agent has no obligation to buy any of the securities from us or to arrange for the purchase or sale of any specific number or dollar amount of securities but has agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of the securities offered by this prospectus. We have agreed to pay the Placement Agent a fee of 6.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in this offering as set forth in the table below.

There is no minimum number of securities or minimum aggregate amount of proceeds for this offering to close. We will deliver all securities to be issued in connection with this offering DVP upon receipt of investor funds received by us. Accordingly, neither we nor the Placement Agent have made any arrangements to place investor funds in an escrow account or trust account since the Placement Agent will not receive investor funds in connection with the sale of the securities offered hereunder.

We are a smaller reporting company under Rule 405 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and, as such, have elected to comply with certain reduced public company reporting requirements for this prospectus supplement, the documents incorporated by reference herein and future filings.

INVESTING IN OUR SECURITIES INVOLVES RISKS. WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU READ CAREFULLY THE RISKS WE DESCRIBE IN THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT AND THE ACCOMPANYING BASE PROSPECTUS, AS WELL AS THE RISK FACTORS THAT ARE INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE INTO THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT AND THE ACCOMPANYING BASE PROSPECTUS FROM OUR FILINGS MADE WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION. SEE “RISK FACTORS” BEGINNING ON PAGE S-5 OF THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT AND PAGE S-3 OF THE ACCOMPANYING BASE PROSPECTUS.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the securities we may be offering or determined if this prospectus supplement is accurate or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

Our Company

American Battery Technology Company is a growth company within the lithium–ion battery industry that is working to increase the domestic US production of battery materials, such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, and manganese through its engagement in the exploration of new primary resources of battery metals, in the development and commercialization of new technologies for the extraction of these battery metals from primary resources, and in the commercialization of an internally developed integrated process for the recycling of lithium–ion batteries. Through this three–pronged approach, the Company is working to both increase the domestic production of these battery materials, and to ensure spent batteries have their elemental battery metals returned to the domestic manufacturing supply chain in an economical, environmentally-friendly, closed–loop fashion.

To implement this business strategy, the Company is currently beginning commercial operations at its first integrated lithium–ion battery recycling facility, which will take in waste and end–of–life battery materials from the electric vehicle, stationary storage, and consumer electronics industries. The construction, commissioning, and operations of this facility are of the highest priority to the Company, and as such it has significantly increased the resources devoted to its execution including the further internal hiring of technical staff, expansion of laboratory facilities, and purchasing of equipment. The Company has been awarded a competitively bid grant from the US Advanced Battery Consortium to accelerate the development and demonstration of this pre–commercial scale integrated lithium–ion battery recycling facility. The Company has been notified that it has been selected for an additional grant award under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to validate, test, and deploy three disruptive advanced separation and processing technologies in its existing lithium-ion battery recycling facilities. On December 18, 2024, the Company received a contracted grant award for $144 million of federal investment by the U.S. Department of Energy, with these funds awarded to the Company and its subcontractors to support the construction of a new lithium-ion battery recycling facility, which is expected to be the Company’s second commercial-scale lithium-ion battery recycling facility.

Additionally, the Company is accelerating the demonstration and commercialization of its internally developed low–cost and low–environmental impact processing train for the manufacturing of battery grade lithium hydroxide from Nevada–based sedimentary claystone resources. The Company has been awarded a grant cooperative agreement from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Manufacturing Office through the Critical Materials Innovation program to support the construction and operation of a multi–ton per day integrated continuous demonstration system to support the scale–up and commercialization of these technologies.

The Company’s corporate headquarters are in Reno, Nevada, and its mineral exploration office is located in Tonopah, Nevada. The Company is commissioning its novel recycling plant for recycling lithium-ion batteries in McCarran, Nevada.

Corporate Information

The Company was incorporated as Oroplata Resources, Inc. under the laws of the State of Nevada on October 6, 2011, for the purpose of acquiring rights to mineral properties with the eventual objective of being a producing mineral company. On August 8, 2016, the Company formed Lithortech Resources Inc. as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company to serve as its operating subsidiary for lithium resource exploration and mine development. On June 29, 2018, the Company changed the name of Lithortech Resources to LithiumOre Corp. (“LithiumOre”). On May 3, 2019, the Company changed its name to American Battery Metals Corporation. On August 12, 2021, the Company further changed its name to American Battery Technology Company, which better aligns with the Company’s current business activities and future objectives. On September 11, 2023, the Company effected a one-for-fifteen (1:15) reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of the Company’s authorized, issued and outstanding shares of common stock, and the authorized shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Preferred Stock”). All share numbers and prices herein reflect the effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split.

THE OFFERING

Unless we indicate otherwise, all information in this prospectus supplement is based on 76,439,790 shares of Common Stock outstanding as of December 18, 2024, and excludes, as of that date, approximately 12,505,900 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of convertible notes, 7,644,469 shares of our Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants, with a weighted average exercise price of $10.27 per share, and 8,471,240 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the vesting of outstanding restricted stock units.

Unless otherwise stated, all information in this prospectus supplement assumes no exercise of the outstanding convertible notes or warrants described above into Common Stock.

RISK FACTORS

An investment in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment in our Common Stock, you should carefully consider the risks discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, which are incorporated herein by reference (other than, in each case, information furnished, rather than filed), as well as the information contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus relating to this offering. Any of those risk factors could significantly and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations, and the trading price of our Common Stock. Although we describe, and will describe, what we believe to be the principal risks related to our Company and the securities we offer, we can also be affected by risks we do not anticipate or do not think will have a material effect upon us. Please also read carefully the section entitled “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

RISKS RELATED TO THIS OFFERING

The number of shares of our Common Stock available for future issuance or sale could adversely affect the per share trading price of our Common Stock.

We cannot predict whether future issuances or sales of our Common Stock or the availability of shares for resale in the open market will decrease the per share trading price of our Common Stock. The issuance of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock in the public market or the perception that such issuances might occur could adversely affect the per share trading price of our Common Stock. In addition to the shares issuable pursuant to this offering, we have issued or registered for resale a total of 70,232,491 shares in connection with several transactions that have occurred during the last two fiscal years.

The market price of our Common Stock has been, and may continue to be, highly volatile, and such volatility could cause the market price of our Common Stock to decrease and could cause you to lose some or all of your investment in our Common Stock.

From January 1, 2024 through December 19, 2024, the market price of our Common Stock has fluctuated from a high of $4.68 per share to a low of $0.73 per share, and our stock price continues to fluctuate. The market price of our Common Stock may continue to fluctuate significantly in response to numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control, such as:

Further, the stock market in general, and our industry in particular, has recently experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of companies with securities traded in those markets. Broad market and industry factors may seriously affect the market price of companies’ stock, including ours, regardless of actual operating performance. The volatility of our Common Stock is further exacerbated due to its low trading volume. Continued market fluctuations could result in extreme volatility in the price of our Common Stock, which could cause a decline in the value of our Common Stock and the loss of some or all of your investment.

Management will have broad discretion as to the use of the proceeds from this offering, and we may not use the proceeds effectively.

We have not allocated specific amounts of the net proceeds from this offering for any specific purpose, except as described in “Use of Proceeds.” Accordingly, our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering and could spend the proceeds in ways that you do not agree with or that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our Common Stock. See “Use of Proceeds.” Our failure to apply these funds effectively could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial results, operating results and/or cash flow and could cause the price of our Common Stock to decline.

Our outstanding warrants, and the availability for resale of certain of the underlying shares, may adversely affect the trading price of our Common Stock.

Our outstanding warrants could adversely affect our ability to obtain future financing or engage in certain mergers or other transactions, since the holders thereof may exercise them at a time when we may be able to obtain additional capital through a new offering of securities on terms more favorable to us than the terms of outstanding securities. For the life of such warrants, the holders have the opportunity to profit from a rise in the market price of our Common Stock without assuming the risk of ownership. The issuance of shares upon the exercise of outstanding warrants would also dilute the ownership interests of our existing stockholders.

Additional financing or future equity issuances may result in future dilution to our stockholders.

We expect that we will need to raise additional funds in the future to finance our growth, our current and planned initiatives, investment activities, and for other reasons. Any required additional financing may not be available on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, you may experience significant dilution of your ownership interest and the newly issued securities may have rights senior to those of the holders of our Common Stock. The price per share at which we sell additional securities in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share in this offering. Alternatively, if we raise additional funds by obtaining loans from third parties, the terms of those financing arrangements may include negative covenants or other restrictions on our business that could impair our operational flexibility and would also require us to fund additional interest expense. If adequate additional financing is not available when required or is not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to successfully execute our business plan.

If the trading price of our Common Stock fails to comply with the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market, we would face possible delisting, which would result in a limited public market for our Common Stock and make obtaining future debt or equity financing more difficult for us.

On December 19, 2024, we received a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of Nasdaq notifying us that, for the 30 consecutive trading days prior to such letter, we failed to maintain a minimum closing bid price of $1.00 in violation of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Rule”). We have 180 calendar days in which to regain compliance, including by implementing a reverse stock split. If we cannot comply with the Minimum Bid Price Rule or other Nasdaq continued listing requirements, our Common Stock could be subject to delisting and could begin trading on the over-the-counter market. If our Common Stock was to trade on the over-the-counter market, we may lose some or all of our institutional investors and selling our Common Stock could be more difficult because smaller quantities of shares would likely be bought and sold, transactions could be delayed, and security analysts’ coverage of us may be reduced. In addition, broker-dealers have certain regulatory burdens imposed upon them, which may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our Common Stock, further limiting the liquidity of our Common Stock. As a result, the market price of our Common Stock may be depressed, and you may find it more difficult to sell our Common Stock. Such delisting from the Nasdaq Capital Market and continued or further declines in our share price could also greatly impair our ability to raise additional necessary capital through equity or debt financing. If we are not in compliance with the Nasdaq continued listing requirements, we also are not able to sell shares of our Common Stock under the ATM Sales Agreement that we entered into with Virtu Americas LLC on April 3, 2024.

The sale or issuance of our Common Stock may cause dilution and the sale of the shares of Common Stock could cause the price of our Common Stock to fall.

We may issue additional securities in the future, including our Common Stock, securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, our Common Stock or substantially similar securities. To the extent that we raise additional funds through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities will result in dilution to our stockholders. We may sell our Common Stock or other securities at a price per share that is less than the price per share paid by investors in this offering, and investors purchasing our Common Stock or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing stockholders. The price per share at which we sell additional shares of our Common Stock, or securities convertible or exchangeable into shares of our Common Stock, in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share paid by investors in this offering. Depending on market liquidity at the time, sales of such shares or other securities may cause the trading price of our Common Stock to fall.

There is no public market for the Warrants being offered by us in this offering.

There is no established public trading market for the Warrants being offered in this offering, and we do not expect a market to develop. In addition, we do not intend to apply to list the Warrants on any national securities exchange or other nationally recognized trading system, including Nasdaq. Without an active market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be limited.

Holders of Warrants purchased in this offering will have no rights as common stockholders until such holders exercise their Warrants and acquire our Common Stock.

Until holders of Warrants acquire shares of our Common Stock upon exercise thereof, such holders will have no rights with respect to the shares of our Common Stock underlying the Warrants. Upon exercise of the Warrants, the holders will be entitled to exercise the rights of a common stockholder only as to matters for which the record date occurs after the exercise date.

Significant holders or beneficial holders of the Common Stock may not be permitted to exercise Warrants that they hold.

A holder of a Warrant will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any Warrant which, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the investor (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the Company’s securities beneficially owned by the investor (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the combined voting power of all of the Company’s securities then outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Warrants. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% provided that any increase shall not be effective until 61 days following notice from the holder to us. As a result, you may not be able to exercise your Warrants for shares of the Common Stock at a time when it would be financially beneficial for you to do so. In such circumstance you could seek to sell your Warrants to realize value, but you may be unable to do so in the absence of an established trading market for the Warrants.

The Warrants are speculative in nature.

The Warrants do not confer any rights of Common Stock ownership on their holders, such as voting rights or the right to receive dividends, but rather merely represent the right to acquire shares of Common Stock at a fixed price for a limited period of time. Specifically, commencing on the date of issuance, holders of the Warrants may exercise their right to acquire Common Stock and pay an exercise price of $1.10 per share, subject to certain adjustments. The Warrants will expire in five years from the original issuance date, after which each time any unexercised Warrants will expire and have no further value. Moreover, following this offering, the market value of the Warrants is uncertain and there can be no assurance that the market value of the Warrants will equal or exceed their imputed offering price. The Warrants will not be listed or quoted for trading on any market or exchange. There can be no assurance that the market price of our Common Stock will ever equal or exceed the exercise price of the Warrants and consequently, whether it will ever be profitable for holders of the Warrants to exercise the Warrants.

We may not receive any additional funds upon the exercise of the Warrants.

In certain situations, each Warrant may be exercised by way of a cashless exercise, meaning that the holder may not pay a cash purchase price upon exercise, but instead would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of Common Stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Warrant. Accordingly, we may not receive any additional funds upon the exercise of the Warrants.

We do not intend to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

We have never paid cash dividends on our Common Stock and currently do not plan to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMPANY

Since we have a limited operating history, it is difficult for potential investors to evaluate our business.

The Company has commissioned a recycling plant and has started generating revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. Our limited operating history makes it difficult for potential investors to evaluate our technology or prospective operations. As an early-stage company, we are subject to all the risks inherent in the initial organization, financing, expenditures, complications and delays in a new business. Investors should evaluate an investment in us in light of the uncertainties encountered by developing companies in a competitive environment. There can be no assurance that our efforts will be successful or that we will ultimately be able to attain profitability.

We may need additional financing, which additional financing may not be available on reasonable terms or at all.

We believe that we will require significant working capital in the near term in order to fund our current operations. We will likely need to raise capital over the next 12 months to satisfy such requirements, the receipt of which cannot be assured. We will also require additional capital in order to fully develop our recycling facilities. We intend to seek additional funds through various financing sources, including the private sale of our equity and debt securities, joint ventures with capital partners and project financing of our recycling facilities. However, there can be no guarantees that such funds will be available on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. If such financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to further pursue our business plan and we may be unable to continue operations, in which case you may lose your entire investment.

We must effectively manage the growth of our operations, or our company will suffer.

Our ability to successfully implement our business plan requires an effective planning and management process. If funding is available, we may elect to increase the scope of our operations and acquire complementary businesses. Implementing our business plan will require significant additional funding and resources. If we grow our operations, we will need to hire additional employees and make significant capital investments. If we grow our operations, it will place a significant strain on our existing management and resources. Additionally, we will need to improve our financial and managerial controls and reporting systems and procedures, and we will need to expand, train and manage our workforce. Any failure to manage any of the foregoing areas efficiently and effectively would cause our business to suffer.

We may be unable to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, and as a result we may be unable to accurately report our financial results.

Our reporting obligations as a public company place a significant strain on our management, operational and financial resources and systems. We do not currently have effective internal controls. If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we could experience delays or inaccuracies in our reporting of financial information, or non-compliance with the SEC, reporting and other regulatory requirements. This could subject us to regulatory scrutiny and result in a loss of public confidence in our management, which could, among other things, cause our stock price to drop.

We have been and expect to be significantly dependent on consulting agreements for the development of our battery recycling facilities, which exposes us to the risk of reliance on the performance of third parties.

In developing our battery recycling technology, we rely to some extent on consulting agreements with third parties as the Company does not have the resources to employ all the necessary staff required for such activities. The failure to obtain and maintain such consulting agreements would substantially disrupt or delay our battery recycling activities. Any such loss would likely increase our expenses and materially harm our business, financial condition and results of operation.

If we are not successful in attracting and retaining highly qualified personnel, we may not be able to successfully implement our business strategy. In addition, the loss of the services of certain key employees would adversely impact our business prospects.

If we are not successful in attracting and retaining highly qualified personnel, we may not be able to successfully implement our business strategy. In addition, the loss of the services of certain key employees, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Technology Officer, would adversely impact our business prospects. Our ability to compete in the highly competitive battery recycling technology business depends in large part upon our ability to attract highly qualified managerial, scientific, and engineering personnel. In order to induce valuable employees to remain with us, we intend to provide employees with stock grants that vest over time. The value to employees of stock grants that vest over time will be significantly affected by movements in our stock price that we will not be able to control and may at any time be insufficient to counteract more lucrative offers from other companies. Other technology companies with which we compete for qualified personnel have greater financial and other resources, different risk profiles, and a longer history in the industry than we do. They also may provide more diverse opportunities and better chances for career advancement. Some of these characteristics may be more appealing to high-quality candidates than what we have to offer. If we are unable to continue to attract and retain high-quality personnel, the rate and success at which we can develop and commercialize products would be limited.

RISKS RELATING TO OUR BUSINESS AND INDUSTRY

Battery recycling is a highly competitive and speculative business and we may not be successful in seeking available opportunities.

The process of battery recycling is a highly competitive and speculative business. In seeking available opportunities, we will compete with a number of other companies, including established, multi-national companies that have more experience and resources than we do. There also may be other small companies that are developing similar processes and are farther along than the Company. Because we may not have the financial and managerial resources to compete with other companies, we may not be successful in our efforts to develop technology which is commercially viable.

Our new business model has not been proven by us or anyone else. 

We intend to engage in the business of lithium recycling through a proprietary recycling technology. While the production of lithium-ion recycling is an established business, to date most lithium-ion recycling has been produced by way of performing bulk high temperature calcinations or bulk acid dissolutions. We have developed a highly strategic recycling processing train that does not employ any high temperature operations or any bulk chemical treatments of the full battery. We have tested our recycling process on a small scale and to a limited degree; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to produce battery metals in commercial quantities at a cost of production that will provide us with an adequate profit margin. The uniqueness of our process presents potential risks associated with the development of a business model that is untried and unproven.

While the testing of our recycling process has been successful to date, there can be no assurance that we will be able to replicate the process, along with all of the expected economic advantages, on a large commercial scale.

As of the date of this prospectus supplement, we have built and operated our recycling process on a very small scale. While we believe that our development and testing to date has proven the concept of our recycling process, we have not undertaken the build-out or operation of a large-scale facility capable of recycling large commercial quantities. There can be no assurance that as we commence large scale manufacturing or operations that we will not incur unexpected costs or hurdles that might restrict the desired scale of our intended operations or negatively impact our projected gross profit margin.

Our intellectual property rights may not be adequate to protect our business. 

We currently do not hold any patents for our products. Although we expect to file applications related to our technology, no assurances can be given that any patent will be issued on such patent applications or that, if such patents are issued, they will be sufficiently broad to adequately protect our technology. In addition, we cannot assure you that any patents that may be issued to us will not be challenged, invalidated, or circumvented. Even if we are issued patents, they may not stop a competitor from illegally using our patented processes and materials. In such event, we would incur substantial costs and expenses, including lost time of management in addressing and litigating, if necessary, such matters. Additionally, we rely upon a combination of trade secret laws and nondisclosure agreements with third parties and employees having access to confidential information or receiving unpatented proprietary know-how, trade secrets and technology to protect our proprietary rights and technology. These laws and agreements provide only limited protection. We can give no assurance that these measures will adequately protect us from misappropriation of proprietary information.

Our processes may infringe on the intellectual property rights of others, which could lead to costly disputes or disruptions.

The applied science industry is characterized by frequent allegations of intellectual property infringement. Though we do not expect to be subject to any of these allegations, any allegation of infringement could be time consuming and expensive to defend or resolve, result in substantial diversion of management resources, cause suspension of operations or force us to enter into royalty, license, or other agreements rather than dispute the merits of such allegation. If patent holders or other holders of intellectual property initiate legal proceedings, we may be forced into protracted and costly litigation. We may not be successful in defending such litigation and may not be able to procure any required royalty or license agreements on acceptable terms or at all.

Our business strategy includes entering into joint ventures and strategic alliances. Failure to successfully integrate such joint ventures or strategic alliances into our operations could adversely affect our business.

We propose to commercially exploit our recycling process, in part, by entering into joint ventures and strategic relationships with parties involved in the manufacture and recycling of lithium-ion products. Joint ventures and strategic alliances may involve significant other risks and uncertainties, including distraction of management’s attention away from normal business operations, insufficient revenue generation to offset liabilities assumed and expenses associated with the transaction, and unidentified issues not discovered in our due diligence process, such as product quality, technology issues and legal contingencies. In addition, we may be unable to effectively integrate any such programs and ventures into our operations. Our operating results could be adversely affected by any problems arising during or from any joint ventures or strategic alliances.

If we are unable to manage future expansion effectively, our business, operations and financial condition may suffer significantly, resulting in decreased productivity. 

If our recycling process proves to be commercially valuable, it is likely that we will experience a rapid growth phase that could place a significant strain on our managerial, administrative, technical, operational and financial resources. Our organization, procedures and management may not be adequate to fully support the expansion of our operations or the efficient execution of our business strategy. If we are unable to manage future expansion effectively, our business, operations and financial condition may suffer significantly, resulting in decreased productivity.

The global economic conditions could negatively affect our prospects for growth and operating results.

Our prospects for growth and operating results will be directly affected by the general global economic conditions of the industries in which our suppliers, partners and customer groups operate. We believe that the market price of our principal product, recycled lithium-ion, is relatively volatile and reacts to general global economic conditions. A decline in the price of lithium-ion resulting from over supply or a global economic slowdown and the other global economic conditions could negatively affect our business. There can be no assurance that global economic conditions will not, at times, negatively impact our liquidity, growth prospects and results of operations.

Government regulation and environmental, health and safety concerns may adversely affect our business.

Our operations in the United States will be subject to the Federal, State and local environmental, health and safety laws applicable to the reclamation of lithium-ion batteries. Depending on how any particular operation is structured, our facilities will probably have to obtain environmental permits or approvals to operate, including those associated with air emissions, water discharges, and waste management and storage. We may face opposition from local residents or public interest groups to the installation and operation of our facilities. Failure to secure (or significant delays in securing) the necessary approvals could prevent us from pursuing some of our planned operations and adversely affect our business, financial results and growth prospects. In addition to permitting requirements, our operations are subject to environmental health, safety and transportation laws and regulations that govern the management of and exposure to hazardous materials such as the heavy metals and acids involved in battery reclamation. These include hazard communication and other occupational safety requirements for employees, which may mandate industrial hygiene monitoring of employees for potential exposure to hazardous materials. Failure to comply with these requirements could subject our business to significant penalties (civil or criminal) and other sanctions that could adversely affect our business.

The nature of our operations involves risks, including the potential for exposure to hazardous materials such as heavy metals, that could result in personal injury and property damage claims from third parties, including employees and neighbors, which claims could result in significant costs or other environmental liability. Our operations also pose a risk of releases of hazardous substances, such as heavy metals or acids, into the environment, which can result in liabilities for the removal or remediation of such hazardous substances from the properties at which they have been released, liabilities which can be imposed regardless of fault, and our business could be held liable for the entire cost of cleanup even if we were only partially responsible. Like any manufacturer, we are also subject to the possibility that we may receive notices of potential liability in connection with materials that were sent to third-party recycling, treatment, or disposal facilities under the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended (“CERCLA”), and comparable state statutes, which impose liability for investigation and remediation of contamination without regard to fault or the legality of the conduct that contributed to the contamination, and for damages to natural resources. Liability under CERCLA is retroactive, and, under certain circumstances, liability for the entire cost of a cleanup can be imposed on any responsible party.

In the event we are unable to present and operate our recycling process and operations as safe and environmentally responsible, we may face opposition from local governments, residents or public interest groups to the installation and operation of our facilities.

RISKS RELATED TO AN INVESTMENT IN OUR SECURITIES

The relative lack of public company experience of our management team could adversely impact our ability to comply with the reporting requirements of U.S. securities laws.

Our management team lacks significant public company experience, which could impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements such as those imposed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our senior management has little experience in managing a publicly traded company. Such responsibilities include complying with federal securities laws and making required disclosures on a timely basis. Our senior management may not be able to implement programs and policies in an effective and timely manner that adequately respond to such increased legal, regulatory compliance and reporting requirements, including the establishing and maintaining of internal controls over financial reporting. Any such deficiencies, weaknesses or lack of compliance could have a materially adverse effect on our ability to comply with the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, which is necessary to maintain our public company status. If we were to fail to fulfill those obligations, our ability to continue as a U.S. public company would be in jeopardy, we could be subject to the imposition of fines and penalties and our management would have to divert resources from attending to our business plan.

The elimination of monetary liability against our directors, officers and employees under Nevada law and the existence of indemnification rights for or obligations to our directors, officers and employees may result in substantial expenditures by us and may discourage lawsuits against our directors, officers and employees.

Our articles of incorporation (as amended, “Articles of Incorporation”) contain a provision permitting us to eliminate the personal liability of our directors to us and our stockholders for damages for the breach of a fiduciary duty as a director or officer to the extent provided by Nevada law. We may also have contractual indemnification obligations under any future employment agreements with our officers. The foregoing indemnification obligations could result in our incurring substantial expenditures to cover the cost of settlement or damage awards against directors and officers, which we may be unable to recoup. These provisions and the resulting costs may also discourage us from bringing a lawsuit against directors and officers for breaches of their fiduciary duties, and may similarly discourage the filing of derivative litigation by our stockholders against our directors and officers even though such actions, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders.

We may issue additional shares of Common Stock or preferred stock in the future, which could cause significant dilution to all stockholders.

Our Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 251,666,667 shares, including 250,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 1,666,667 shares of preferred stock, each with a $0.001 par value per share. As of December 18, 2024, we had 76,493,790 shares of Common Stock outstanding; however, we may issue additional shares of Common Stock or preferred stock in the future in connection with a financing or an acquisition. Such issuances may not require the approval of our stockholders. In addition, certain of our outstanding rights to purchase additional shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into our Common Stock are subject to some form of anti-dilution protection, which could result in the right to purchase significantly more shares of Common Stock being issued or a reduction in the purchase price for any such shares or both. Any issuance of additional shares of our Common Stock, or equity securities convertible into our Common Stock, including but not limited to, preferred stock, warrants and options, will dilute the percentage ownership interest of all stockholders, may dilute the book value per share of our Common Stock, may negatively impact the market price of our Common Stock, and may also negatively affect stockholders’ investments.

Anti-takeover effects of certain provisions of Nevada state law hinder a potential takeover of us.

Certain provisions of the Nevada Revised Statutes have anti-takeover effects and may inhibit a non-negotiated merger or other business combination. These provisions are intended to encourage any person interested in acquiring us to negotiate with, and to obtain the approval of, our board of directors (the “Board of Directors” or “Board”) in connection with such a transaction. However, certain of these provisions may discourage a future acquisition of us, including an acquisition in which the stockholders might otherwise receive a premium for their shares. As a result, stockholders who might desire to participate in such a transaction may not have the opportunity to do so.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate that the net proceeds from this offering will be approximately $4.6 million, after deducting the estimated Placement Agent’s fees and estimated offering expenses payable by us, assuming all of the Common Stock and Warrants offered hereby are sold.

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes and working capital, after making a required 20% excess cash payment to certain of the Company’s existing debtholders. Our management will retain broad discretion in the allocation and use of the net proceeds of this offering, and investors will be relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of these net proceeds. The precise amount, use and timing of the application of such proceeds will depend upon our funding requirements and the availability and cost of other capital.

Pending our use of the net proceeds from this offering, we may invest the net proceeds of this offering in a variety of capital preservation investments, including but not limited to short-term, investment grade, interest bearing instruments and U.S. government securities.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings to support our operations and finance the growth and development of our business. We do not intend to pay cash dividends on our Common Stock for the foreseeable future. Any future determination related to our dividend policy will be made at the discretion of our Board of Directors.

The current and future holders of our Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends pro rata based on the number of shares held, when and if declared by our Board of Directors, from funds legally available for that purpose. Nevada Revised Statutes prohibits us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend, we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the ordinary course of business, or our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities.

Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws do not contain provisions restricting our ability to pay dividends of our Common Stock.

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth our consolidated cash and cash equivalents and capitalization as of September 30, 2024. Such information is set forth on the following basis:

You should read this information together with our consolidated financial statements and related footnotes and the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, which are incorporated by reference through the base prospectus.

The above table and discussion excludes, as of September 30, 2024, approximately 3,489,871 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of convertible notes, 9,394,469 shares of our Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants, with a weighted average exercise price of $8.55 per share, and 3,176,967 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the vesting of outstanding restricted stock units.

We amended our Articles of Incorporation on November 14, 2024 to authorize the issuance of up to 251,666,667 shares, including 250,000,000 shares of Common Stock and 1,666,667 shares of preferred stock, each with a $0.001 par value per share. We are not permitted to issue and sell a number of shares under this offering that would cause us to issue and sell more shares than we have authorized under our Articles of Incorporation.

DILUTION

If you invest in this offering, your ownership interest will be immediately diluted to the extent of the difference between the public offering price per share and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share after giving effect to this offering. We calculate net tangible book value per share by dividing the net tangible book value, which is the total tangible assets less total liabilities, by the number of outstanding shares of our Common Stock. Dilution represents the difference between the portion of the amount per share paid by purchasers of shares in this offering and the as adjusted net tangible book value per share of our Common Stock immediately after giving effect to this offering.

After giving effect to the adjustments described in the “Capitalization” section, our net tangible book value as of September 30, 2024, would have been approximately $59.4 million or approximately $0.76 per share of Common Stock. This represents an immediate increase in the net tangible book value of approximately $0.01 per share to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of approximately $0.24 per share to new investors.

The following table illustrates this per share dilution based on shares outstanding as of September 30, 2024:

The above table and discussion excludes, as of that date, approximately 3,489,871 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of convertible notes, 9,394,469 shares of our Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of outstanding warrants, with a weighted average exercise price of $8.55 per share, and 3,176,967 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the vesting of outstanding restricted stock units.

To the extent any outstanding warrants, including the Warrants are exercised, and/or equity awards are exercised or become vested or any additional equity awards are granted and exercised or become vested or other issuances of our Common Stock are made, there may be further economic dilution to new investors.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES WE ARE OFFERING

The following description of our capital stock is not complete and may not contain all the information you should consider before investing in our capital stock. This description is summarized from, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws which have been publicly filed with the SEC. See “Where You Can Find More Information” and “Incorporation by Reference.”

Offering

We are offering shares of the Common Stock and Warrants. The shares of the Common Stock and accompanying Warrants will be issued separately. We are also registering the shares of Common Stock issuable from time to time upon exercise of the Warrants offered hereby.

Authorized and Outstanding Securities

The Company is authorized to issue two classes of shares, designated “Common Stock” and “Preferred Stock.” The total number of shares that the Company is authorized to issue is 251,666,667. The Company is authorized to issue 1,666,667 shares of Preferred Stock, of which the Company has designated 33,334 shares as Series A Preferred Stock with a $0.001 par value per share, 133,334 shares as Series B Preferred Stock with a $10.00 par value per share, 66,667 shares as Series C Preferred Stock with a $10.00 par value per share and five shares as Series D Preferred Stock with a $0.001 par value per share. The number of shares of Common Stock which the Company is authorized to issue is 250,000,000 with a $0.001 par value per share.

Common Stock

The holders of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters requiring a vote of the stockholders, including the election of directors. Holders of Common Stock do not have cumulative voting rights. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to share ratably in dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board in its discretion from funds legally available therefor, subject to preferences that may be applicable to preferred stock, if any, then outstanding. At present, we have no plans to issue dividends. See “Dividend Policy” for additional information. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to share pro rata all assets remaining after payment in full of all liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock, if any, then outstanding. The Common Stock has no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the Common Stock.

Warrants

The following is a brief summary of certain terms and conditions of the Warrants being offered by us. The following description is subject in all respects to the provisions contained in the Warrants.

Form

The Warrants will be issued as individual warrant agreements to each individual purchaser of a warrant.

Term

The Warrants will expire on the date that is five years after the date of issuance.

Exercisability

The Warrants are exercisable upon issuance. The Warrants will expire on the 5-year anniversary of the original issuance date. The Warrants will be exercisable, at the option of each holder, in whole or in part, by delivering to us a duly executed exercise notice and by payment in full of the exercise price in immediately available funds for the number of shares of the Common Stock purchased upon such exercise. If at the time of exercise there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for, the issuance or resale of the shares of the Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of the Warrants, then as an alternative to payment of the exercise price in immediately available funds, the holder may elect to exercise the Warrant through a cashless exercise, in which case the holder would receive upon such exercise the net number of shares of the Common Stock determined according to the formula set forth in the Warrant. No fractional shares of the Common Stock will be issued in connection with the exercise of a Warrant. In lieu of fractional shares, we will, at our election, either pay the holder an amount in cash equal to the fractional amount multiplied by the last closing trading price of the Common Stock on the exercise date or round up to the next whole share.

Exercise Limitations

Under the Warrant, we may not effect the exercise of any Warrant, and a holder will not be entitled to exercise any portion of any Warrant, which, upon giving effect to such exercise, would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the investor (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the Company’s securities beneficially owned by the investor (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the combined voting power of all of the Company’s securities then outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Warrants. However, any holder may increase or decrease such percentage to any other percentage not in excess of 9.99% provided that any increase shall not be effective until 61 days following notice from the holder to us.

Exercise Price

The exercise price per whole share of the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants is $1.10 per share of the Common Stock. The exercise price of the Warrants and the number of shares of the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is subject to appropriate adjustment in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock and also upon any distributions of assets, including cash, stock, or other property to our stockholders. The exercise price will not be adjusted below the par value of the Common Stock.

Fractional Shares

No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued upon the exercise of the Warrants. Rather, we will, at our election, and in lieu of the issuance of such fractional share, either (i) pay cash in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the exercise price or (ii) round up to the next whole share issuable upon exercise of the Warrants.

Transferability

Subject to applicable laws, the Warrants may be offered for sale, sold, transferred, or assigned without our consent. The Warrants will be held in definitive form by the purchasers. The ownership of the Warrants and any transfers of the Warrants will be registered in a warrant register maintained by us or our transfer agent.

Trading Market; Exchange Listing

We do not plan to apply to list the Warrants on Nasdaq, any other national securities exchange, or any other nationally recognized trading system. The shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are currently listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ABAT.”

Fundamental Transactions

In the event of a fundamental transaction, as described in the Warrants and generally including any reorganization, recapitalization or reclassification of the Common Stock, the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of our properties or assets, our consolidation or merger with or into another person, the acquisition of more than 50% of our outstanding Common Stock, or any person or group becoming the beneficial owner of 50% of the voting power represented by our outstanding Common Stock, upon consummation of such a fundamental transaction, the holders of the Warrants will be entitled to receive upon exercise of the Warrants the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property that the holders would have received had they exercised the Warrants immediately prior to such fundamental transaction without regard to any limitations on exercise contained in the Warrants. In addition, the holders of the Warrants have the right to require us or a successor entity to redeem the Warrant for the cash paid in the fundamental transaction in the amount of the Black Scholes value of the unexercised portion of the Warrant on the date of the consummation of the fundamental transaction.

No Rights as a Stockholder

Except by virtue of such holder’s ownership of shares of the Common Stock, the holder of a Warrant does not have the rights or privileges of a holder of the Common Stock, including any voting rights or the rights to receive dividends, until the holder exercises the Warrant.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Nevada Law and Our Charter Documents

Certain provisions of Nevada law and our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws could make more difficult the acquisition of us by means of a tender offer or otherwise, and the removal of incumbent officers and directors. These provisions are expected to discourage certain types of coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids and to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of us.

Transfer Agent

The transfer agent for our Common Stock is Securities Transfer Corporation at 2901 N. Dallas Parkway, Suite 380, Plano, TX 75093. The transfer agent’s telephone number is (469) 633-0101.

Listing

The Common Stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol “ABAT.”

There is no established public trading market for the Warrants and we do not expect a market to develop for the Warrants. Without an active trading market, the liquidity of the Warrants will be limited. In addition, we do not intend to list the Warrants on Nasdaq, any other national securities exchange, or any other trading system.

Other Activities and Relationships

The Placement Agent and certain of its affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research, principal investment, hedging, financing, and brokerage activities. The Placement Agent and certain of its affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various commercial and investment banking and financial advisory services for us and our affiliates, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses.

In the ordinary course of their various business activities, the Placement Agent and certain of its affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for their own account and for the accounts of their customers, and such investment and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments issued by us and our affiliates. If the Placement Agent or its affiliates have a lending relationship with us, they routinely hedge their credit exposure to us consistent with their customary risk management policies. The Placement Agent and its affiliates may hedge such exposure by entering into transactions that consist of either the purchase of credit default swaps or the creation of short positions in our securities or the securities of our affiliates, including potentially the Common Stock offered hereby. Any such short positions could adversely affect future trading prices of the Common Stock offered hereby. The Placement Agent and certain of its affiliates may also communicate independent investment recommendations, market color or trading ideas and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or instruments and may at any time hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

As stated above, the Placement Agent and its affiliates have and may in the future provide, from time to time, investment banking and financial advisory services to us in the ordinary course of business, for which they may receive customary fees and commissions.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

WHERE YOU CAN FIND MORE INFORMATION

We are subject to the informational requirements of the Exchange Act, and in accordance with those requirements, we file Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other information with the SEC. The SEC maintains an Internet website that contains reports, proxy and information statements and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. Our SEC filings are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Unless specifically listed or described under “Incorporation by Reference,” the information contained on the SEC website is not intended to be incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and you should not consider that information a part of this prospectus supplement.

We have filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3, of which this prospectus supplement is a part, with respect to the Common Stock that we will offer. This prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus do not contain all the information contained in the registration statement, including its exhibits and schedules. You should refer to the registration statement, including the exhibits and schedules, for further information about us and the Common Stock we may offer. Statements we make in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying base prospectus about certain contracts or other documents are not necessarily complete. When we make such statements, we refer you to the copies of the contracts or documents that are filed as exhibits to the registration statement, because those statements are qualified in all respects by reference to those exhibits. The registration statement, including exhibits and schedules, is on file at the office of the SEC and may be inspected without charge at the SEC’s website.

We will also provide to you, at no cost, a copy of any document incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and any exhibits specifically incorporated by reference in those documents.

INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE

The SEC’s rules allow us to “incorporate by reference” information into this prospectus supplement, which means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you to another document filed separately with the SEC. The information incorporated by reference is deemed to be part of this prospectus supplement, and subsequent information that we file with the SEC will automatically update and supersede that information. Any statement contained in this prospectus supplement, the base prospectus, or a previously filed document incorporated by reference will be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this prospectus supplement to the extent that a statement contained in this prospectus supplement or a subsequently filed document incorporated by reference modifies or replaces that statement.

The base prospectus together with this prospectus supplement incorporate by reference the following documents, as well as each of the documents that we file with the SEC under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, between the date of this prospectus supplement and the termination of the offering of the securities described in this prospectus supplement; provided that we are not incorporating by reference any documents or portions thereof, whether specifically listed below or filed in the future, that are not deemed “filed” with the SEC, including any information furnished pursuant to Item 2.02 or 7.01 of Form 8-K or related exhibits furnished pursuant to Item 9.01 of Form 8-K:
