Forward guidance
Lordstown Motors is reaffirming Q4 start of deliveries of Endurance, awaiting EPA and CARB approval, and targeting an initial production batch of up to 500 units. The company is also working on its next vehicle with Foxconn and anticipates year-end cash and short-term investments between $150 to $165 million, inclusive of Foxconn's initial investment.
Tailwinds
- Reaffirming Q4 start of deliveries of Endurance, subject to full homologation and required certification.
- Awaiting approval from EPA and CARB; all FMVSS crash testing has been successfully completed.
- Continue to target initial production batch of up to 500 units.
- Pre-development work on next vehicle has begun by LMC, in collaboration with Foxconn EV ecosystem, including MIH consortium.
- Foxconn has agreed to make an additional investment in Lordstown Motors of up to $170 million, subject to certain terms and conditions.
Headwinds
- Production is expected to increase towards the end of the month as the remaining supplier part pedigree and availability issues are resolved.
- Approximately 30 commercial units of the first batch are estimated to be built by the end of 2022, with the remainder built in the first half of 2023.
- The first production batch of Endurances will be limited to up to 500 vehicles, because the bill of materials (BOM) cost is materially higher than our anticipated selling price.
- Full homologation and certification is expected later this quarter, which is required to start shipping vehicles to our customers.
- Target year end cash and short-term investments of $150 to $165 million, including Foxconn initial investment, and excluding contingent liabilities and other financings
