Current report

In April 2026, we entered into the Series C Subscription Agreement with Ayar. Pursuant to the Series C Subscription Agreement, we issued to Ayar 55,000 shares of our Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $550.0 million in a private placement.

Current report

The Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock sold to Ayar pursuant to the Series C Subscription Agreement was issued pursuant to the Series C Certificate of Designations filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware in April 2026 and was sold in reliance on the exemption from registration provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

Current report

Pursuant to the offset provisions under the first VPA we entered into with Uber on July 16, 2025, the Minimum Quantity Guarantee increased the aggregate number of Lucid Gravity Plus and Lucid Midsize Plus vehicles Uber is committed to purchase to at least 35,000 units.

Current report

In April 2026, in connection with the Second VPA, we and a subsidiary of Uber, SMB, entered into a subscription agreement, under which we issued to SMB, in a private placement, $200.0 million of our common stock.

Current report

In April 2026, we entered into the 2026 Underwriting Agreement with the Underwriter, under which the Underwriter purchased from us shares of our common stock in a registered offering, and we received aggregate net proceeds of $291.5 million.

Current report

In April 2026, we borrowed $500.0 million under the DDTL Credit Facility. In April 2026, we also entered into the DDTL Amendment, pursuant to which the aggregate undrawn delayed commitments under the DDTL Credit Facility were increased by $500.0 million, such that, after giving effect to such increase, the sum of outstanding delayed draw term loans and aggregate undrawn commitments was increased to approximately $2.5 billion.

Current report

The DDTL Amendment, among other things, eliminated the minimum liquidity covenant and removed the requirement that we fully utilize the borrowing availability under the ABL Credit Agreement (as defined therein) prior to making borrowings under the DDTL Credit Facility.

Current report

In April 2026, we announced that Silvio Napoli will be our next Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”). Mr. Napoli is expected to be appointed as our CEO once he receives the right to work in the U.S. In addition, Mr. Napoli was appointed to our Board of Directors and Executive Committee.

Current report

As we expand globally, our strategy includes establishing third-party distribution partnerships through proven business models such as importer, dealer, agent, and authorized repairer relationships. Introducing these channels is expected to enable rapid growth in these markets while optimizing the capital required to build a comprehensive sales and service network. All third-party partnerships are expected to be governed by robust agreements, standards, and guidelines to ensure compliance and maintain the Lucid customer experience throughout the entire journey.

Current report

Revenue increased by $47.4 million, or 20% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily driven by our ramp-up of the Lucid Gravity. Lucid Gravity which has a higher average selling price, resulted in a favorable product mix that contributed to the increase in the revenue. The increase was partially offset by a decrease of $31.5 million in regulatory credit sales for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the same period in the prior year. We believe the recent proposal to lower the U.S. federal fuel economy standards and eliminate CAFE EV credit trading may create uncertainties to future regulatory credit sales. Please see “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Business and Operations — The unavailability, reduction or elimination of certain government and economic programs could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations”.

Current report

Cost of revenue increased by $130.6 million, or 28% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to higher inventory write-downs including losses from firm purchase commitments and approximately $41.0 million of incremental tariff cost impact resulting from U.S. tariffs implemented in February 2025, and increased in unit costs attributable to a higher Lucid Gravity product mix. These increases were partially offset by an estimated IEEPA tariff refund of approximately $53.0 million, recorded following the U.S. Supreme Court’s February 2026 ruling that certain tariffs imposed under the IEEPA were unlawful. See Note 4 “Balance Sheets Components” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for more information. In the near term, we expect our production volume of vehicles to continue to be less than our manufacturing capacity.

Current report

Gross margin was (110.4)% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to (97.2)% for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in gross margin was primarily driven by higher inventory write-downs including losses from firm purchase commitments, $41.0 million of incremental tariff cost, and $31.5 million lower regulatory credit sales during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the same period in the prior year. These impacts were partially offset by an estimated IEEPA tariff refund of approximately $53.0 million recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and a favorable product mix. Our gross margin was also negatively impacted by the fact that our direct production costs for vehicles sold during the period exceeded the revenue generated from those sales, independent of the charges for inventory write-downs.

Current report

On February 20, 2026, we announced the 2026 Plan that intended to align with our long-term operating goals as we focus on the start of production of our Midsize platform, expansion into the robotaxi market and development of ADAS technologies, as well as the sale and distribution of our current models in existing and new geographies. We expect to substantially complete the 2026 Plan by the end of the second quarter of 2026, subject to local law and consultation requirements. As a result of the 2026 Plan, we expect to incur total workforce reduction charges of approximately $40 million, primarily related to severance payments, employee benefits, and employee transition. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recorded workforce reduction charges of $37.9 million. See Note 3 “Workforce Reduction” to our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for more information.

Current report

In November 2025, we issued $975.0 million of the 2031 Notes. Contemporaneously with the 2031 Notes offering, we entered into privately negotiated transactions with certain holders of the 2026 Notes to repurchase $755.7 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes, using $748.2 million of the net proceeds of the 2031 Notes. The 2031 Notes accrue interest at a rate of 7.00% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on May 1, 2026. The 2031 Notes will mature on November 1, 2031, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The holders may require us to repurchase the 2031 Notes on November 1, 2029. Before the close of business on the business day immediately before August 1, 2031, noteholders will have the right to convert their 2031 Notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. From and after August 1, 2031, noteholders may elect at any time to convert their 2031 Notes until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. We will settle conversions by paying or delivering, as applicable, cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election. The initial conversion rate is 48.0475 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2031 Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $20.81 per share of common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events, including a reverse stock split. In addition, if certain corporate events that constitute a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we were in compliance with applicable covenants under the indenture governing the 2031 Notes.

Current report

In April 2026, we borrowed $500.0 million under the DDTL Credit Facility. In April 2026, we also entered into the DDTL Amendment, pursuant to which the aggregate undrawn delayed commitments under the DDTL Credit Facility were increased by $500.0 million, such that, after giving effect to such increase, the sum of outstanding delayed draw term loans and aggregate undrawn commitments was increased to approximately $2.5 billion.

Current report

In April 2026, pursuant to the Series C Subscription Agreement, we issued to Ayar 55,000 shares of our Series C Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and received aggregate gross proceeds of $550.0 million. In April 2026, we also completed the public offering pursuant to the 2026 Underwriting Agreement for aggregate net proceeds of $291.5 million. See Note 17 “Subsequent Events” to the condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report, for more information.

Current report

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $27.5 million to $35.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in proceeds from borrowings from 2025 GIB Credit Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in the prior year.

Current report

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses, which requires disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses (such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization) within the relevant expense captions presented on the face of the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. We are evaluating the impact of this amendment to the related financial statement disclosures.

Current report

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The ASU removed references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages. The ASU requires us to start capitalizing eligible software costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The ASU does not change the types of costs eligible for capitalization. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted and may be applied using a prospective, retrospective or modified transition approach. We are evaluating the impact of this amendment to the financial statements.

Current report

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-10, Government Grants (Topic 832): Accounting for Government Grants Received by Business Entities. The ASU requires us to recognize a government grant when it is probable that we will comply with the conditions attached to the grant and the grant will be received, and we meet the recognition guidance for a grant related to an asset or a grant related to income. The ASU requires a grant related to an asset to be recognized as we incur the related costs for which the grant is intended to compensate, either as deferred income or as an adjustment to the cost basis in determining the carrying amount of the asset. The ASU also requires a grant related to income and a grant related to an asset for which the deferred income approach is elected to be recognized in earnings on a systematic and rational basis. When we elect the cost accumulation approach for a grant related to an asset, there is no separate subsequent recognition of the government grant proceeds in earnings. We are required to continue providing disclosures on the nature of the government grant received, the accounting policies used to account for the grant, and significant terms and conditions of the grant. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2028, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted, and may be applied using a modified prospective, modified retrospective or retrospective approach. We are evaluating the impact of this amendment to the financial statements.

Current report

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements. The ASU provides clarity on the current interim reporting disclosures and introduces a disclosure principle which requires us to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on us. The guidance is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted and may be applied using a prospective or retrospective approach. We are evaluating the impact of this amendment to the financial statements.

Current report

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12, Codification Improvements. The ASU represents changes to the Codification that clarify, correct errors, or make minor improvements. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted and we may elect the transition method on an issue-by-issue basis. We are evaluating the impact of this amendment to the financial statements.

Current report

In April 2026, the FASB issued ASU 2026-01, Equity (Topic 505): Initial Measurement of Paid-in-Kind Dividends on Equity-Classified Preferred Stock, which requires that paid-in-kind (“PIK”) dividends on equity-classified preferred stock, including preferred stock that is classified as temporary equity, be initially measured on the basis of the PIK dividend rate stated in the preferred stock agreement. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted and may be applied using a prospective or modified retrospective approach. We are evaluating the impact of this amendment to the financial statements.

Current report

We have considered all other recently issued accounting pronouncements and do not believe the adoption of such pronouncements will have a material impact on our financial statements or notes thereto.

Previous report

We began delivering the Lucid Air to customers in October 2021. We have leveraged and expanded the technological advancements from the Lucid Air to the Lucid Gravity, which offers an unprecedented combination of performance, interior space, and efficiency, and started commercial production and deliveries in December 2024. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we produced 3,891 vehicles and delivered 4,078 vehicles. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we produced 9,966 vehicles and delivered 10,496 vehicles.

Previous report

Beyond the Lucid Air and the Lucid Gravity, we plan to expand our vehicle lineup with the upcoming Midsize platform, which is scheduled for start of production in late 2026. Introducing a new vehicle is challenging and complex, particularly at our accelerated pace, and we are leveraging insights gained from our Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity production ramps while planning for our Midsize production. The highly uncertain macroeconomic environment and swift-moving trade policies further complicate these efforts. In response to this uncertainty, we are diligently working to optimize our supply chain and manufacturing plans.

Previous report

On July 16, 2025, we entered into the 2025 Subscription Agreement with SMB, a subsidiary of Uber, under which we agreed to issue and SMB agreed to purchase, in a private placement, our common stock equal to (i) $300.0 million in cash divided by (ii) an amount equal to the arithmetic average of the daily volume-weighted average price of the common stock over a period of thirty (30) consecutive trading days ending on, and including, July 15, 2025. In September 2025, we consummated the private placement of shares to SMB pursuant to the 2025 Subscription Agreement and issued 13,715,121 shares for aggregate net proceeds of $299.7 million after deducting issuance costs of $0.3 million. The proceeds of the private placement will be used to fund non-recurring engineering costs, including the design, development, manufacture, and delivery of the Lucid Gravity Plus vehicles and for general corporate purposes.

Previous report

On August 29, 2025, we effected the Reverse Stock Split at a ratio of one-for-ten (1:10) and a corresponding reduction of the authorized shares of common stock, as approved by our Board of Directors and stockholders. The shares of the common stock began trading on a reverse split-adjusted basis at market open on September 2, 2025. See Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report for more information regarding the Reverse Stock Split.

Previous report

Revenue increased by $136.5 million, or 68%, and $257.7 million, or 45% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increases were primarily driven by higher Lucid vehicle deliveries and increases of $7.8 million and $40.5 million in regulatory credit sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increase in revenue was partially offset by a lower average selling price of vehicles for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in the prior year.

Previous report

Cost of revenue increased by $257.7 million, or 62%, and $377.8 million, or 29% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the same periods in the prior year. The increases were primarily due to higher delivery volume of the Lucid vehicles and higher inventory write-downs including losses from firm purchase commitments, partially offset by improvements in vehicle cost efficiency. Cost of revenue included approximately $44 million and $98 million of incremental tariff cost impact during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively.

Previous report

These impacts were also partially offset by a $41.5 million of provision associated with a special warranty campaign recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. We expect the ramping of our production volumes to positively impact our cost per vehicle in the remainder of 2025. In the near term, we expect our production volume of vehicles to continue to be less than our manufacturing capacity.

Previous report

Gross margin improved to (99.1)% and (100.4)% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to (106.2)% and (124.6)% for the same periods in the prior year, respectively, primarily driven by improvements in vehicle cost efficiency and increases in regulatory credit sales, partially offset by higher inventory write-downs and losses from firm purchase commitments and tariff impact. Gross margin improvement for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was also partially offset by a lower average selling price of vehicles.

Previous report

Research and development expense decreased by $45.8 million, or 5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease of $145.1 million in engineering, design and testing services, and prototype materials related mostly to the Lucid Gravity as we started production in late 2024, partially offset by increases of $54.1 million in payroll related expenses, $14.6 million in stock-based compensation expenses, $11.7 million in utilization of contractors and professional fees, $10.7 million in facilities and rental related costs, and $8.6 million in other expenses.

Previous report

Selling, general, and administrative expense increased by $49.5 million, or 21% for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily attributable to increases of $20.8 million in sales and marketing expenses, $10.5 million in stock-based compensation expenses, $10.4 million in facilities and rental related costs, and $5.1 million in payroll related expenses.

Previous report

On May 24, 2024, we announced the 2024 Restructuring Plan intended to optimize operating expenses in response to evolving business needs and productivity improvement through a reduction in workforce. We completed the 2024 Restructuring Plan during the first quarter of 2025. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded restructuring charges of $0.1 million and $20.3 million, respectively.

Previous report

In April 2025, we repurchased $1,052.5 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes, using $931.4 million of the net proceeds of the 2030 Notes. The repurchases of the 2026 Notes were accounted for as a debt extinguishment. The difference between the consideration paid to repurchase a portion of the 2026 Notes and the then carrying value of the 2026 Notes resulted in a gain of $116.4 million, and was recorded within gain on extinguishment of debt in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Previous report

Interest income decreased by $24.0 million, or (15)% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to higher average purchase price of available-for-sale securities, partially offset by higher interest rates on our available-for-sale securities.

Previous report

In November 2025, we entered into the 2025 DDTL Credit Facility to increase the aggregate principal amount from $750.0 million to $1.98 billion. We are required to pay a quarterly undrawn fee of 0.50% per annum based on the unutilized portion of the 2025 DDTL Credit Facility. As of November 5, 2025, we had no outstanding borrowings under the 2025 DDTL Credit Facility. See Note 18 “Subsequent Event” to the condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report for more information.

Previous report

In June 2023, we completed the public offering pursuant to the 2023 Underwriting Agreement for aggregate net proceeds of $1.2 billion and also consummated a private placement of shares to Ayar pursuant to the 2023 Subscription Agreement for aggregate net proceeds of $1.8 billion after deducting issuance costs.

Previous report

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased by $1,201.0 million to $517.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in the prior year. We received gross proceeds of $1.1 billion from the issuance of the 2030 Notes, repurchased a portion of the 2026 Notes using $931.4 million, and received gross proceeds of $300.0 million from the 2025 Subscription Agreement during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. We received gross proceeds of $1.0 billion from the issuance of Series A Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock and $750.0 million from the issuance of Series B Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Previous wording

On July 16, 2025, we entered into the VPA with Uber under which Uber and its designated fleet operators have agreed to purchase a minimum commitment of 20,000 Lucid Gravity Plus vehicles over a six-year period following the start of production, which is targeted to occur in late 2026. We and Uber will collaborate with Nuro, Inc., as the provider of autonomous driving software, to develop and deploy a fleet of autonomous vehicles to be used as robotaxis on the Uber platform.

Current wording

In April 2026, we announced the entry into the Second VPA with Uber, under which Uber and its designated fleet operators have agreed to the Minimum Quantity Guarantee of 25,000 Lucid Midsize platform vehicles for use as robotaxis that have been modified to include certain autonomous driving hardware and other features (the “Lucid Midsize Plus vehicles”) over a six-year period following the start of production. Start of production of Lucid Midsize Plus vehicles is targeted to occur in late 2028.

Previous wording

A global economic recession, downturn or other adverse economic conditions, whether due to changes or uncertainties in trade policies, the imposition or proposed imposition of tariffs, export controls, threat of trade war, persistent inflation, political instability, global or regional conflicts or other geopolitical events, public health crises, interest rate increases or other central bank policy actions, bank closures and liquidity concerns at financial institutions, or other factors, may have an adverse impact on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. If any of our suppliers, sub-suppliers or partners experience financial distress, insolvency or disruptions in operations, they may be unable to fulfill their obligations or meet our production and quality requirements. Adverse economic conditions and uncertainty about the current and future domestic or global economic conditions may also cause our customers to defer purchases or cancel their orders in response to higher interest rates, limited consumer credit availability, lower cash reserves, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, and weakened consumer confidence. A reduction in demand for our products may result in a decline in product sales, with a corresponding material adverse impact on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations. Given our premium brand positioning and pricing, an economic recession or downturn is likely to have a disproportionate adverse effect on us compared to our competitors in the EV and traditional automotive sectors, to the extent that consumer demand for luxury goods declines in favor of more cost-conscious alternatives. In addition, adverse economic conditions and uncertainties surrounding trade policies, tariffs and export controls could also cause supply chain and logistical challenges and operational risks. In particular, the U.S. federal government recently enacted the law commonly referred to as the OBBBA, which eliminates, limits or phases out certain tax credits that had previously provided significant benefits to lessees and purchasers of EVs and adds new eligibility requirements on manufacturers to continue claiming tax credits on EV components. It also eliminates certain penalties for noncompliance with certain fuel efficiency standards and introduces certain key tax law modifications.

If any of our suppliers, sub-suppliers or partners experience financial distress, insolvency or disruptions in operations, they may be unable to fulfill their obligations or meet our production and quality requirements.

Previous wording

Taken together, adverse economic conditions and uncertainties surrounding trade policies, tariffs and export controls, coupled with supply chain challenges and the potential difficulty of passing costs to consumers or sharing the burden with suppliers, could reduce demand for our products and have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, the deterioration of conditions in the financial markets may limit our ability to obtain external financing to fund our operations and capital expenditures on terms favorable to us, if at all.

We recorded write-downs of $192.1 million and $528.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and $154.9 million and $446.9 million for the same periods in the prior year, respectively, to reduce our inventories to their net realizable values, for any excess or obsolete inventories, and losses from firm purchase commitments. The increases in the write-downs were primarily due to higher inventory and firm purchase commitments in anticipation of the Lucid Gravity production ramp-up and tariff impacts for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the same periods in the prior year. While the final scope and application of recently announced changes in trade policy remain uncertain at this time, higher tariffs on imports and subsequent retaliatory tariffs could adversely impact our financial results. We expect inventory write-downs could negatively affect our costs of vehicle sales in upcoming periods in the near term as we ramp production volumes up toward our manufacturing capacity.

The initial conversion rate is 33.3333 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2030 Notes, which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $30.00 per share of common stock. The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events, including a reverse stock split. In addition, if certain corporate events that constitute a make-whole fundamental change (as defined in the indenture) occur, then the conversion rate will, in certain circumstances, be increased for a specified period of time. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we were in compliance with applicable covenants under the indenture governing the 2030 Notes.
