On May 15, 2019, the board caused CUI Global to announce that it had entered into a letter of intent, relating to a business combination with Nikola, LLC. In a Form 8-K filed with the Securities & Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), CUI Global described the transaction by stating it "contemplates that we will issue shares representing approximately 85% ownership of CUI on a post transaction basis, plus cash consideration of $30 million payable at closing, plus $45 million as evidenced by a 1-year unsecured promissory note at 6.0% annualized interest paid quarterly in cash, plus assumption of $15 million in indebtedness. Additionally, the terms contemplate a potential earn out of an additional aggregate consideration of up to $200 million in cash payable over five years that is contingent on our consolidated post-closing EBITDA. The Potential Transaction, if consummated, will result in the equity holders of Nikola, LLC obtaining voting control over CUI."

Following this news, on May 16, 2019, CUI Global's share price immediately fell 16.1% on heavy volume.
