U Power Limited (UCAR) exploded higher this week after announcing a small but closely watched capital raise. The Chinese battery-swapping company entered into subscription agreements on April 7, 2026, with seven purchasers to sell 2.9 million Class A Ordinary Shares at $1.10 per share.

The deal is expected to generate gross proceeds of $3.19 million. It was structured under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, which allows companies to raise capital from non-U.S. investors without registering the securities with the SEC.

The transaction was approved by UCAR’s board of directors, with closing expected around April 7, 2026.

The stock initially jumped 142% on Wednesday before extending its rally to a peak gain of over 331% on Thursday. It closed Wednesday’s regular session at $2.38 before touching $3.02 intraday Thursday.

The company plans to use the funds to support expansion into new and existing markets, scale core operations, and speed up deployment of its battery-swapping technology.

A Reverse Split Came First

Earlier in April, UCAR executed a 10-for-1 reverse stock split, which consolidated its share count and changed its CUSIP number. That move came before the capital raise announcement.

The stock had been trading near its 52-week low ahead of this week’s move. Its 52-week range runs from $0.38 to $49.80, and the RSI sits at 38.88, still in technically weak territory.

UCAR carries a market cap of just $5.09 million, making it a micro-cap name. Despite the dramatic short-term move, the stock is still down 91.25% over the past 12 months.

By the Numbers

The five-day gain stands at 349.14% as of Thursday. However, longer-term price trend data from Benzinga’s rankings shows a negative trend across all time frames.

The stock is positioned roughly 4% up from its 52-week low, even after this week’s spike. That context puts the rally in perspective — the stock had been deeply depressed heading into the announcement.

The placement was offered exclusively to persons who are not U.S. persons, meaning domestic retail investors were not eligible to participate in the offering.

UCAR provides AI-integrated solutions for energy grid infrastructure and intelligent transportation systems, with battery-swapping as its core commercial focus.

As of Thursday’s session, the stock was trading at $3.02, up 26.89% on the day.
