Highlights
BRISBANE, Australia, May 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tritium DCFC Limited (“Tritium” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: DCFC), a global leader in direct current (“DC”) fast chargers for electric vehicles (“EVs”), today provided an update on the business.
Preliminary Results – January 1, 2023 - April 30, 2023
Capital Investment
The Company secured a $40 million capital investment, comprised of $35 million from Sunset Power Pty Ltd as trustee of the St Baker Family Trust (“St Baker”) and $5 million from O-Corp EV LLC (“O-Corp”). These funds will be used to fund working capital to continue to scale production volumes, further product development, and grow service operations around the world.
“Both the ongoing support from our largest investor and our preliminary results for the period January 1, 2023 through April 30, 2023 demonstrate the continued strong demand for Tritium’s products and services, and successful manufacturing scale-up to meet the demand for fast-charging infrastructure as the world shifts towards electrification,” said Tritium CEO Jane Hunter. “With our rapidly expanding production capacity and strategic customer partnerships, Tritium has maintained a strong market position and we believe the Company is well-positioned to compete for number one in market share.”
Business Update
Calendar Year 2023 – Guidance
Tennessee Factory and Production Update
The Company’s Tennessee facility is rapidly scaling to meet demand across all the Company’s customer channels, as evidenced by the Company’s aggregate production of approximately 3,200 units from January 1, 2023 through April 30, 2023, nearly achieving the total production of 3,572 units for the calendar year 2022.
Tritium now has the largest published global production plans for DC fast chargers outside China and the largest published planned production capacity onshore in America. This production capacity places the Company in a strong position to capitalize on the anticipated surge in demand for Buy America-compliant EV fast chargers over the next five years, as a result of funding from the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (“NEVI”) Formula Program, Charging and Fueling Infrastructure (“CFI”) Discretionary Grant Program, and the Inflation Reduction Act.
In March 2023, Tritium began accepting orders for the Company’s first product offering for the NEVI program. Tritium’s NEVI system is expected to achieve the Build America, Buy America Act waiver milestones set by the Federal Highway Administration.

Forward Looking Statements
This press release includes “forward-looking statements.” The Company’s actual results may differ from its expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Words such as “expect,” “estimate,” “project,” “budget,” “forecast,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “believe,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “aim,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the Company’s expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions, or strategies for the future. These forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results, including, but not limited to: our history of losses; the ability to successfully manage our growth; the adoption and demand for electronic vehicles including the success of alternative fuels, changes to rebates, tax credits, and the impact of government incentives; the accuracy of our forecasts and projections including those regarding our market opportunity; competition; our ability to secure financing; delays in our manufacturing plans; losses or disruptions in supply or manufacturing partners; risks related to our technology, intellectual property and infrastructure; exemptions to certain U.S. securities laws as a result of our status as a foreign private issuer; and other important risks and uncertainties described in the documents filed by the Company from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Most of these factors are outside the Company’s control and are difficult to predict. The Company cautions not to place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements, including projections, which speak only as of the date made. The Company does not undertake or accept any obligation to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements to reflect any change in its expectations or any change in events, conditions, or circumstances on which any such statement is based.
*Non-GAAP Measures
Tritium prepares audited financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Tritium also discloses certain non-GAAP measures such as EBITDA as we believe that such non-GAAP measures are useful to investors in evaluating our performance by providing an additional tool for investors to use in comparing our financial performance over multiple periods. Additionally, these figures provide an understanding and evaluation of our trends when comparing our operating results against those of our competitors and over time by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.
We calculate forward-looking EBITDA based on internal forecasts that omit certain amounts that would be included in forward-looking GAAP net income (loss). We do not attempt to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking EBITDA guidance and targets to forward looking GAAP net income (loss) because forecasting the timing or amount of items that have not yet occurred and are out of our control is inherently uncertain and unavailable without unreasonable efforts. Further, we believe that such reconciliations would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors. Such items could have a substantial impact on GAAP measures of financial performance.
