Financial Summary:
##Cost of sales was $16.1 million. Of that amount, $10.4 million was tool and equipment depreciation. Most of the remainder is manufacturing overhead, followed by labor and material costs. The higher cost of sales stems from natural inefficiencies in early vehicle production – namely, higher component costs due to initial manufacturing inefficiencies and lower volumes.
Operating loss was $66.4 million, compared with a loss of $80 million in the same period last year. The narrowing of operating losses was mainly due to lower research and development expenditures, followed by improvements in administrative expenses.
Net loss was $78 million, compared with a net loss of $119.9 million in the same period last year. The narrower net loss was primarily due to lower operating expenses and gains on changes in the fair value of notes payable and warrant liabilities, offset by the non-cash settlement of convertible notes recorded during the quarter.
operating activities generated net cash outflows of US$240.4 million, compared with US$355.1 million in the same period last year; capital expenditures were US$10.8 million , compared with US$112.1 million in the same period last year; Net cash inflow from financing activities was US$237.6 million, compared with US$40.9 million in the same period last year.
