Rivian Releases Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

• Rivian received $1 billion equity investment from Volkswagen Group on June 30th
• R2 progress on track; design validation ongoing and testing underway
• Announced East Coast headquarters in Atlanta, expected to open later this year

IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- American manufacturer Rivian Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ: RIVN) today announced its second-quarter 2025 financial results. Following its second quarter of gross profit in Q1 2025, Rivian received a $1 billion equity investment from Volkswagen Group on June 30 at an effective price of $19.42 which represents a 33% premium to the $14.56 30-trading day volume-weighted average stock price. The investment is part of the up to $5.8 billion agreement associated with the Rivian and Volkswagen Group Technology joint venture.

As previously announced, in the second quarter Rivian produced 5,979 vehicles at its manufacturing facility in Normal, Illinois and delivered 10,661 vehicles. Production during the second quarter for both R1 products and commercial vans was limited primarily due to a variety of supply chain complexities partially driven by shifts in trade policy.

RJ Scaringe, Rivian Founder and CEO, said:

鈥淭his quarter we made significant progress in R2 development and testing. We also substantially completed the expansion of our Normal, Illinois facility and have begun installing manufacturing equipment in preparation for our start of production. Along with R2, our autonomy platform continues to be one of our major focus areas, and we're excited to share more of our roadmap later this year.鈥�

Preparations for the launch of R2 currently remain on track. The 1.1 million square foot plant expansion at the Normal, Illinois site is now substantially complete and installation of production tooling equipment for component manufacturing is underway. Rivian expects to commission the new R2 line in the third quarter of this year to start validating the equipment and production processes. Rivian is currently producing R2 design validation builds on its pilot production line in California which helps validate the design and optimize cost. As part of R2 preparations, Rivian expects to shutdown the existing factory in Normal for approximately three weeks in September to increase the manufacturing capacity to approximately 215,000 units.

This quarter Rivian started deliveries of its second-generation Quad-Motor R1. Rivian鈥檚 new Quad-Motor system is designed to be more capable, powerful and more fun to drive than any of the company鈥檚 previous R1 models.

In July, in partnership with the State of Georgia, Rivian announced that later this year it is planning to open an East Coast headquarters in Atlanta. The headquarters will be a focal point for Rivian鈥檚 global growth strategy and a key investment in a top state for electric mobility. This site will complement Rivian鈥檚 upcoming Georgia manufacturing facility in Stanton Spring North, outside Atlanta.

While Rivian believes its long-term opportunity to drive meaningful growth and profitability remains strong, some of the recent policy actions have had and are expected to continue to have an impact on its results and cash flows of its business. Rivian remains focused on developing world class technology and efficiently scaling its manufacturing capacity in the United States in light of these policy changes.

The company is maintaining its 2025 delivery guidance range of 40,000 to 46,000. Because of some of the recent changes associated with regulatory credits and its second quarter performance, the company is increasing its guidance for adjusted EBITDA losses to ($2,000) million - ($2,250) million.

Rivian will host an audio webcast to discuss its results and provide a business update at 2:00pm PT / 5:00pm ET on Tuesday, August 5, 2025. The link to the webcast and shareholder letter will be made available on the company鈥檚 Investor Relations website at . After the call, a replay will be available at for four weeks.

*Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (鈥淕AAP鈥�), we review financial measures that are not calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP (鈥渘on-GAAP financial measures鈥�). We believe our non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance. We use the following non-GAAP financial information, collectively, to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively, may be helpful to investors, because it focuses on underlying operating results and trends, provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance, and assists in comparisons with other companies, some of which use similar non-GAAP financial information to supplement their GAAP results. The non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. A reconciliation of each historical non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with GAAP is provided above. Reconciliations of forward- looking non-GAAP financial measures are not provided because we are unable to provide such reconciliations without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty regarding, and potential variability of, certain items, such as stock-based compensation expense and other costs and expenses that may be incurred in the future. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Our non-GAAP financial measures include adjusted research and development expenses, adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow.

Adjusted research and development expenses is defined as total research and development expenses, less R&D depreciation and amortization expenses and R&D stock-based compensation expenses.

Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses is defined as total selling, general, and administrative expenses, less SG&A depreciation and amortization expenses and SG&A stock-based compensation expenses.

Adjusted EBITDA defined as net loss before interest expense (income), net, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, other (expense) income, net, and special items. Our management team ordinarily excludes special items from its review of the results of the ongoing operations. Special items is comprised of (i) cost of revenue efficiency initiatives which include costs incurred as we transition between major vehicle programs, cost incurred for negotiations with major suppliers regarding changing demand forecasts or design modifications, and other costs for enhancing capital and cost optimization of the Company (ii) restructuring expenses for significant actions taken by the Company, (iii) significant asset impairments and write-offs, and (iv) other items that we do not necessarily consider to be indicative of earnings from ongoing operating activities, including loss (gain) on convertible note, net, and joint venture formation expenses.

Free cash flow is defined as net cash used in operating activities less capital expenditures.
