Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFIE) ("FF”, “Faraday Future”, or “the Company"), a California-based global shared intelligent electric mobility ecosystem company, today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2022.
“The third quarter marked a turning point for our company, and we are seeing positive momentum across our vehicle program and in our funding program. I am pleased to announce the achievement of manufacturing milestone #6, the completion of construction and equipment installation in vehicle assembly areas of our ieFactory California at Hanford. We also saw strong progress with FF 91 testing and validation programs, where key performance metrics of our FF 91 including vehicle range (EPA rating), acceleration, and braking are even better than we promised,” said Dr. Carsten Breitfeld, Global CEO of Faraday Future.
Dr. Breitfeld continued, “Our registration statement becoming effective allows us to tap into some of the financing agreements we entered into in recent months. We strengthened our finance leadership, appointed a new auditor, and we filed our third quarter financials on time despite these transitions. We have completed important funding agreements and are optimistic that we can put in place the additional funding we need to launch the FF 91. With that momentum, we are currently developing revised budgets and production plans, and hope to be in a position to announce the timing of delivering the FF 91 to users shortly after funding is secured.”

RESULTS FOR THIRD QUARTER 2022
Faraday Future reported an operating loss of approximately $81 million during the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to an operating loss of approximately $186 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Net loss decreased to approximately $103 million during the three months ended September 30, 2022, as compared to approximately $304 million net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2021.
During the three months ended September 30, 2022 spending was focused on completing the final stages of the ieFactory California manufacturing facility in Hanford, California and production and manufacturing tooling, and engineering, testing, certification and validation capabilities. Such activities are less costly relative to the activities completed in the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in operating loss was also driven by reduced expenses resulting from deferred purchases of components and parts, and certain other cost reduction efforts, including a slowdown in program development relating to future electric vehicle models, and as a result of reduced accruals associated with certain Company litigation and loss on disposal of property and equipment relating to the abandonment of certain FF 91 program assets.
Total assets on September 30, 2022, were $541 million, which include $32 million of cash, compared to $907 million total assets on December 31, 2021. Total liabilities were approximately $253 million, versus approximately $340 million on December 31, 2021. Since inception, the Company has incurred cumulative losses from operations and negative cash flows from operating activities, and the Company reported an accumulated deficit of approximately $3.3 billion as of September 30, 2022. The Company expects to continue to generate significant operating losses for the foreseeable future as we continue to incur expenses before generating meaningful revenue.
