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 reason 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, Form 11-K, 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 or 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 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.

 

Athena Technology Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”) will not, without unreasonable effort and expense, be able to file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2024 (the “Form 10-Q”) within the prescribed time period.

 

The Company previously reported in its Notification of Late Filing on Form 12b-25, filed with the SEC on April 2, 2024, that the Company was unable to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Form 10-K”) within the prescribed time period due as the Company requires additional time to compile the necessary disclosure and financial information to complete the Form 10-K filing.

 

The Company is working diligently to complete and file the Form 10-Q as soon as practicable. However, given the time and focus dedicated to the Company’s completion of its annual report on Form 10-K, the Company is necessarily delayed in its reporting and review process for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. As a result, the Company does not expect to complete the preparation and filing of the Form 10-Q on or before the fifth calendar day following the prescribed due date.

If answer is no, identify report(s).
	☐ Yes   ☒ No

 

The Company has not yet filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2023.

 

(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.  

 

Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Form 12b-25 contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Words such as “expect,” “will,” “anticipates,” “estimates” and variations of such words and similar future or conditional expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the filing of the Form 10-K and Form 10-Q and the timing of such filings, which reflect the Company’s expectations based upon currently available information and data. Because such statements are based on the Company’s current expectations and are not statements of fact, actual results may differ materially from those projected or estimated and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, conditions or results, and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside the Company’s control, that could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise, except as required by law.
