Current report
Warrants and Share Subscriptions
Current report
The Company accounts for warrants and other equity-linked contracts (i.e., share subscriptions) as equity or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the instrument’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in FASB ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”), and ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contract in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”).
Current report
The Company first assesses whether a freestanding equity-linked instrument should be classified as a liability pursuant to ASC 480 when the instrument is mandatorily redeemable, obligates the issuer to settle an instrument or the underlying shares by paying cash or other assets, or must or may require settlement by issuing variable number of shares and such settlement scenario is predominantly likely to occur.
Current report
If an equity-linked instrument does not trigger liability classification under ASC 480, the Company assesses whether the instrument meets all requirements for equity classification under ASC 815-40, including whether the instrument is indexed to the Company’s own common stock, among other conditions for equity classification. If not, the instrument is classified as a liability and is further analyzed to determine whether the instrument represents a derivative in its entirety. This assessment requires the use of professional judgment and requires reassessment of an instrument’s classification at each reporting period while the instrument remains outstanding.
Current report
Equity-linked instruments that meet all equity classification conditions are recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at issuance. Equity-linked instruments accounted for as liabilities are recognized and measured at fair value at inception and each reporting period the instrument remains outstanding. Any excess fair value over proceeds to be realized from the equity-linked instruments entered into at arm’s length, along with any changes in fair value, as determined at each reporting period, are recorded as a component of fair value loss on share subscription liability on the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Changes in fair value are reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows as a non-cash reconciling item between net loss and net cash flows from operating activities.
Current report
Provision for Anticipated Losses on Contracts
Current report
When estimated contract costs exceed expected consideration under contracts with a customer, the Company evaluates whether the nature of the contract is in the scope of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605-35, Revenue Recognition - Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts(“ASC 605-35”). If ASC 605-35 applies, the Company recognizes a provision for the entire anticipated losses on contracts as soon as the loss becomes evident. In determining the anticipated losses, the Company considers the principles in ASC 606-10-32-2 through 32-27 (except for the guidance in paragraphs 606-10-32-11 through 32-13 on constraining estimates of variable consideration) to determine the transaction price, adjusted to reflect the effects of the customer's credit risk. The costs used in arriving at the estimated loss on a contract shall include all costs of the type allocable to contracts under paragraphs 340-40-25-5 through 25-8.
Current report
The provision for anticipated losses on contracts of $2.3 million is classified as a current liability and $1.5 million is classified as a noncurrent liability on the consolidated balance sheet and as a component of cost of revenue on the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

Reworded paragraphs (18)
Previous wording
As a development stage company, we work closely with our customers on the development and commercialization of their programs and the utilization of our products in such programs. Thus far, our customers have purchased prototype products and engineering services from us for use in their research and development programs. We are expanding our manufacturing capacity through third-party manufacturers to meet our customers’ anticipated demand for the production of our products.
Current wording
As a development stage company, we work closely with our customers on the development and commercialization of their programs and the utilization of our products in such programs. Thus far, our customers have primarily purchased prototype products and engineering services from us for use in their research and development programs. We are expanding our manufacturing capacity through third-party manufacturers to meet our customers’ anticipated demand for the production of our products.
Previous wording
Sales Volume. Each product program will have an expected range of sales volumes, depending on the end market demand for our customers’ products as well as market application. This can depend on several factors, including market penetration, product capabilities, size of the end market that the product addresses and our end customers’ ability to sell their products. In addition to end market demand, sales volumes also depend on whether our customer is in the development or production phase. In certain cases, we may provide volume discounts or strategic customer pricing on sales of our solutions, which may or may not be offset by lower manufacturing costs related to higher volumes which in turn could adversely impact our gross margins. Aeva’s ability to ultimately achieve profitability is dependent upon progression of existing relationships to production and our ability to meet required volumes and required cost targets and gross margins. Delays of our current and future customers’ programs could result in Aeva being unable to achieve our revenue targets and profitability in the time frame we anticipate. Such delays could result in Aeva requiring to raise additional debt or equity capital, which may not be available or may only be available on terms that are onerous or highly dilutive to our stockholders.
