Fisker produced just 1,022 Oceans in the second quarter, less than the 1,400 to 1,700 vehicles it had expected to make, and it cut its full-year production guidance in light of those lingering supply-chain challenges.
Fisker now expects its manufacturing partner, Magna International (NYSE:MGA), to build 20,000 to 23,000 Oceans at its contract-manufacturing plant in Austria in 2023. That’s down significantly from 32,000 to 36,000 in its earlier guidance.
Fisker’s net loss for the quarter was $85.5 million, or 25 cents per share, narrower than the 28 cents per share expected by Wall Street analysts, according to Refinitiv consensus estimates.
Revenue was just $825,000, as Fisker managed to deliver just 11 Oceans to customers before quarter-end following the production delays. Wall Street had been expecting revenue to come in at $159.3 million, but media outlets comparing reported revenue to projections because of thin analyst coverage.
A year ago, Fisker reported a net loss of $106 million, or 36 cents a share, and about $10,000 in revenue.
Fisker had $521.8 million in cash on hand as of June 30, versus $652.5 million as of March 31. The EV maker raised an additional $300 million via a convertible note offering in July.
FSR shares retreated 46 cents, or 7.2%, to $5.89.
