Financial highlights
- Q3 2024 revenue was $25.2 million to $33 million, up from negative $1.7 million in Q3 2023, driven by higher FCEV sales and offset by BEV returns. 
- Gross loss for Q3 2024 was $61.9 million, improved from $125.5 million in Q3 2023, but higher than Q2 due to BEV returns. 
- Net loss from continuing operations was $199.8 million in Q3 2024, a 53% improvement from Q3 2023. 
- Cash and cash equivalents at September 30, 2024, totaled $198.3 million, down from $464.7 million at year-end 2023. 
- Cash burn for Q3 was $162 million, with net cash used in operating activities of $399.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. 
Outlook and guidance
- Existing resources are only expected to fund operations into, but not beyond, Q1 2025; additional capital is required. 
- The company expects to complete the BEV recall retrofit and return all trucks to dealers and end users within the first half of 2025. 
- Capital expenditures for the remainder of 2024 are expected to be approximately $20 million, subject to capital availability.
