Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 24, 2026. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements based upon Lucid’s current expectations, estimates and projections that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors”, in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report.

Unless otherwise noted, the share, per share, and related information in this Quarterly Report has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split.

Overview

We are a technology company that is shaping the future of mobility through our innovations, advanced technology, and software-defined vehicle platforms. Our award-winning Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity set new standards with their unmatched combination of performance, range, space, and efficiency. Our focus on in-house hardware and software innovation, vertical integration, and a “clean sheet” approach to engineering and design led to the development of the award-winning Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, and our upcoming Midsize platform.

We sell vehicles directly to consumers through our retail sales network and online channels, including Lucid Financial Services, in North America and the Middle East. We believe that owning and operating our sales network provides the best opportunity to closely manage the customer experience, gather direct feedback, and ensure that every interaction is tailored to customer needs. We are also actively exploring, and have adopted in certain international markets, alternative importer and agency models to enhance flexibility, preserve capital, and optimize our distribution strategy in response to evolving market dynamics. We also own and operate a vehicle service network comprised of service centers in major metropolitan areas and a fleet of mobile service vehicles. In addition to our in-house capabilities, we continue to grow an approved list of specially trained collision repair shops, which in some cases serve as repair hubs for mobile service.

Recent Developments

Workforce Reduction

In June 2026, we announced the June 2026 Plan that was designed to advance our path toward profitability and positive cash flow generation by streamlining our organizational structure, optimizing operating expenses, and aligning production plans with anticipated demand. We expect to substantially complete the June 2026 Plan by the end of the third quarter of 2026, subject to local law and consultation requirements. As a result of the June 2026 Plan, we expect to incur total workforce reduction charges of approximately $34 million, primarily related to severance payments, employee benefits, and employee transition. We expect the Plan to provide us with an annualized cost savings of approximately $158 million.

Cash Flow Improvement

We identified approximately $1.4 billion in cash flow improvements for 2026. These opportunities span inventory, capital expenditures, and operating expenses, and together are intended to improve liquidity, reduce cash burn, and increase capital efficiency while preserving key growth programs, including our Midsize platform and autonomous commercialization initiatives. As part of such efforts, we have reduced our production volume to better align production plans with anticipated demand to improve working capital. Furthermore, we have in the past reduced the size of our workforce, and recently implemented workforce reduction plans and other actions relating to contractors in the first half of 2026, including the elimination of the second shift of production at our AMP-1 factory.

Midsize Platform

During the quarter, we continued to make steady progress toward the start of production of our Midsize platform. The next major phases of the program include additional prototype and quality-launch builds, completion of regulatory and homologation activities, expanded manufacturing validation, and preparation for the start and ramp of production. We will provide additional updates as milestones are achieved and we continue to expect to ramp up Midsize production in the second half of 2027.

Executive Leadership Changes

Effective as of June 1, 2026, Mr. Silvio Napoli has been appointed as our Chief Executive Officer and principal executive officer. Mr. Marc Winterhoff resumed his previous role of our Chief Operating Officer effective as of the same day, and subsequently departed our company following the elimination of the Chief Operating Officer position in June 2026.

On July 2, 2026, the Board appointed Alexander De Bock as our incoming Chief Financial Officer. Mr. De Bock will join the Company as its Chief Financial Officer, effective August 5, 2026. Taoufiq Boussaid, the Company’s current Chief Financial Officer, will take on an advisory role for a period of time to help ensure a smooth transition. On July 2, 2026, we also announced several additional organizational and leadership changes.

DDTL Credit Facility

In July 2026, we borrowed an additional $800.0 million under the DDTL Credit Facility. After giving effect to this borrowing, approximately $1.18 billion remains undrawn under the DDTL Credit Facility.

Potential Impact of Adverse Economic Conditions and Trade Policy Uncertainties on our Business

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 a 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, have in the past and may in the future 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 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.

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 for business growth on terms favorable to us, if at all. See “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report for more information regarding risks associated with a global economic downturn or recession, changes or uncertainties in trade policies, or the imposition or proposed imposition of tariffs, including under the captions “A global economic recession, downturn or other adverse economic conditions may have a material adverse impact on our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.” and “Changes in U.S. trade policy, including the imposition of or uncertainties surrounding tariffs or revocation of normal trade relations and the resulting consequences, could adversely affect our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition.”

Key Factors Affecting Our Performance

We believe that our future success and financial performance depend on a number of factors that present significant opportunities for our business, but also pose risks and challenges, including those discussed below and in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report.

48

Design and Technology Leadership

We believe that we are positioned to be a leader in the EV market by unlocking the potential for advanced, high-performance, and long-range EVs to co-exist. We designed the Lucid Air and the Lucid Gravity with race-proven battery and powertrain technologies, offering robust performance together with a sleek exterior design and expansive interior space due to our miniaturized key drivetrain components. The Lucid Gravity is a groundbreaking new class of SUV, conceived from the ground up. Enabled by our revolutionary technology, the Lucid Gravity provides the interior space and practicality of a full-size SUV within the exterior footprint of a mid-size SUV. As a result, it provides a sophisticated space for up to seven adults, game-changing versatility, and an unparalleled driving experience.

The Lucid Air and the Lucid Gravity are software-defined vehicles, designed to improve over time, with OTA software updates and key hardware already in place in the vehicle. This holistic systems approach to the integration of hardware and software is what allows us to provide these continuous OTA updates.

We designed the Lucid Gravity to share components with the Lucid Air where possible. These measures enable efficiency in design, engineering, and capital expenditure deployment for the Lucid Gravity. We anticipate continued consumer demand for our vehicles based on their luxurious design, high-performance technology, sustainability leadership, and the acceptance of EVs as substitutes for gasoline-fueled vehicles. We also anticipate that these attributes will drive customer demand for our future models, including our upcoming Midsize platform.

Distribution Models

We operate a direct-to-consumer sales and service model in North America, which we believe allows us to offer a personalized experience for our customers based on their purchase and ownership preferences. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses in our sales, service and marketing operations for sales of o

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis provides information that Lucid management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of Lucid’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition as of December 31, 2025 and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. The discussion should be read together with our consolidated financial statements and related notes that are included elsewhere in this Annual Report. For discussion related to our financial condition as of December 31, 2024, results of operations for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and year-to-year comparison between the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on February 25, 2025. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements based upon Lucid’s current expectations, estimates and projections that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of this Annual Report.

Unless otherwise noted, the share, per share, and related information in this Annual Report has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the Reverse Stock Split (as defined in Note 2 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report).

Overview

We are a technology company that is shaping the future of mobility through our innovations, advanced technology, and software-defined vehicle platforms. Our award-winning Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity set new standards with their unmatched combination of performance, range, space, and efficiency. Our focus on in-house hardware and software innovation, vertical integration, and a “clean sheet” approach to engineering and design led to the development of the award-winning Lucid Air and Lucid Gravity, and upcoming Midsize platform.

We sell vehicles directly to consumers through our retail sales network and online channels, including Lucid Financial Services. We believe that owning and operating our sales network provides the best opportunity to closely manage the customer experience, gather direct feedback, and ensure that every interaction is tailored to customer needs. We are also actively exploring alternative importer and agency models to enhance flexibility and optimize our distribution strategy in response to evolving market dynamics. We also own and operate a vehicle service network comprised of service centers in major metropolitan areas and a fleet of mobile service vehicles. In addition to our in-house capabilities, we continue to grow an approved list of specially trained collision repair shops, which in some cases serve as repair hubs for mobile service.

We designed, developed, and now manufacture and sell two groundbreaking EVs: The Lucid Air sedan, for which customer deliveries began in late 2021, and the Lucid Gravity SUV, which arrived on the road in late 2024. We plan to expand our vehicle lineup with the upcoming Midsize platform vehicles, which is scheduled to start 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.

Recent Developments

Workforce Reduction

In February 2026, we announced a reduction of our current U.S. workforce (the “Plan”) 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 Plan by the end of the second quarter of 2026, subject to local law and consultation requirements. As a result of the Plan, we expect to incur total restructuring charges of approximately $40 million to $42 million, primarily related to severance payments, employee benefits, and employee transition. We expect the Plan to provide us with an annualized cash savings of approximately $145 million to $150 million.

2031 Notes

In November 2025, we issued $975.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes in a private offering. The net proceeds from the offering were $962.2 million after deducting debt issuance costs.

Repurchase of 2026 Notes

Contemporaneously with the 2031 Notes offering, we repurchased $755.7 million aggregate principal amount of the 2026 notes, using $748.2 million of the net proceeds of the 2031 Notes.

Potential Impact of Adverse Economic Conditions and Trade Policy Uncertainties on our Business

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 a 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.

We designed the Lucid Air and the Lucid Gravity with race-proven battery and powertrain technologies, offering robust performance together with a sleek exterior design and expansive interior space due to our miniaturized key drivetrain components. The Lucid Gravity is a groundbreaking new class of SUV, conceived from the ground up. Enabled by our revolutionary technology, the Lucid Gravity provides the interior space and practicality of a full-size SUV within the exterior footprint of a mid-size SUV. As a result, it provides a sophisticated space for up to seven adults, game-changing versatility, and an unparalleled driving experience.

The Lucid Air and the Lucid Gravity are software-defined vehicles, designed to improve over time, with OTA software updates and key hardware already in place in the vehicle. This holistic systems approach to the integration of hardware and software is what allows us to provide these continuous OTA updates.

We designed the Lucid Gravity to share components with the Lucid Air where possible, and we continue to evaluate opportunities to apply components developed for the Lucid Gravity to the Lucid Air, further expanding the number of common parts while also enhancing the customer experience in the Lucid Air. These measures enable efficiency in design, engineering, and capital expenditure deployment for the Lucid Gravity. We anticipate continued consumer demand for the Lucid Air based on its luxurious design, high-performance technology, sustainability leadership, and the growing acceptance of and demand for EVs as substitutes for gasoline-fueled vehicles. We also anticipate that these attributes will drive customer demand for the Lucid Gravity, and our future models, including our upcoming Midsize platform.
