Current report

We have entered into, and may continue to enter into, co-creator consulting agreements with our customers under which customers share feedback, driving data, ideas, experiences with our engineers, social media posts, and other promotional activities in exchange for specified fees. We evaluate the economic substance of these co-creation agreements to determine whether they should be combined with customer sales contracts under the contract combination guidance in ASC 606. When the contracts are economically linked, we account for them as a single arrangement. Under this approach, the cash inflows from the customer and the cash outflows from us are netted and treated as a single transaction. The resulting net amount is recorded as marketing expense. In situations where the net amount is less than the vehicle’s sale price or the contractual lease payment, the difference between the net amount and the sale price or lease payment is recognized as revenue.

We have entered and may continue to enter into co-creator consulting agreements with our customers under which customers share feedback, driving data, ideas, experiences with its engineers, social media posts and other promotions in exchange for specified fees. We consider these arrangements to be consideration payable to a customer. The consideration paid to the customer relates to marketing and R&D services that are distinct and could be purchased by us from a separate third-party. We perform an analysis in which we maximize the use of observable market inputs to ascribe a fair value to these services and record the fair value of these services to sales and marketing expense or R&D expense, as applicable. Any consideration payable to a customer that is above the fair value of the distinct services being provided is treated as a reduction of revenue.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 we recognized a $6.4 million gain from the change in fair value of the SPA Portfolio Note warrants compared to a $0.2 million gain during the same period in 2024. This increase was largely driven by the year-over-year growth in the number of SPA Portfolio Note warrants outstanding.

The 2025 loss was further impacted by $31.8 million loss from subsequent fair value remeasurement. The re-measurement was primarily driven by increases in the Company’s stock price during the period compared to preceding three month. However, the increase in the total monetary impact was attributable to the following factors. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 we recognized a $8.7 million loss from the change in fair value of the Incremental Warrants. There was no comparable instrument outstanding during the three months ended June 30, 2024.

The fair value of our related party instruments declined during the period ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to a 53% drop in our Class A Common Stock price over the quarter, including a 13% decline during the three months ended March 31, 2025 when related party debt activity occurred.

For the six months ended June 30, 2025, U.S. tariffs on electric vehicle components imported from China did not have a material impact on the Company’s cost of goods sold. This was primarily due to the Company’s low production volume and the utilization of existing inventory that was procured prior to recent tariff adjustments. However, as production scales and the Company sources a greater volume of materials subject to current tariff rates, these duties may increase per-unit build costs in future periods. Management continues to monitor trade developments and assess sourcing strategies to mitigate potential cost escalation.
