BLNK Blink Charging Company

Blink Charging Co. (NASDAQ: BLNK) (“Blink” or the “Company”), a leading global owner, operator, provider, and manufacturer of electric vehicle (EV) charging equipment and services, today announced a strategic restructuring plan designed to accelerate its BlinkForward objectives, enhance operational efficiencies, and position the Company for sustained long-term growth and profitability in the evolving global market.

The core of this plan includes a difficult but necessary reduction of the Company’s global workforce by approximately 20%. This action is designed to streamline operations, enhance agility, and align resources with the Company’s BlinkForward strategic priorities.

The workforce reduction is expected to be completed by the end of 3Q25.

The BlinkForward initiative represents Blink's commitment to innovation, efficiency, and a resilient future. By realigning its operational structure, the Company is taking decisive steps to build a more focused and agile organization, capable of rapidly responding to market dynamics and capitalizing on future growth opportunities. These measures are specifically designed to advance the BlinkForward vision, which prioritizes sustainable innovation, customer-centric solutions, and enhanced shareholder value.

"Today’s decisions, while challenging, are crucial for propelling our BlinkForward strategy and ensuring the long-term success of Blink," said Mike Battaglia, Blink’s President & CEO. "We are deeply grateful for the contributions of our departing colleagues and are committed to supporting them through this transition. This restructuring is a proactive step to build a more efficient and robust organization, better aligned with our strategic goals and poised to lead in the next phase of our growth.”

Blink Charging is committed to ensuring a seamless transition and will provide severance packages, outplacement services, and other forms of support to eligible affected employees.
