  • The Company continued progress on its world-class manufacturing facility during the quarter, including delivery of all equipment required for Surface Mount Technology ("SMT") and Printed Circuit Board ("PCB") assembly lines, included in phase one of the facility operations. Exro is on track to commission the phase one assets in the second half of 2022.
  • Exro Vehicle Systems Inc, a division of Exro Technologies Inc., continued to deliver against its ongoing projects, in addition to securing a purchaser order to provide more than $US1 million in engineering design services to a Tier-1 automotive supplier.
  • The Company announced initial purchase orders backed by multiyear master sales agreements from both Vicinity Motor Company ("Vicinity") and ev Transportation Services, Inc. ("evTS") to supply Coil Drive Systems.
  • Exro has initiated the process to obtain Underwriter Laboratories ("UL") certification for its Energy Storage System ("ESS") powered by its patented Battery Control System™ ("BCS") technology. Submission for UL certification marks a significant milestone for the Company's ESS in its path to commercialization.

CALGARY, AB, Aug. 11, 2022 /CNW/ - Exro Technologies Inc. (TSX: EXRO) (OTCQB: EXROF) (the "Company" or "Exro"), a leading clean technology company that has developed a new class of power electronics for electric motors and batteries, announced today its financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

"Despite a volatile macro environment through the first half of the year, Exro successfully achieved a number of key milestones during the second quarter," said CEO Sue Ozdemir. "Our world-class net-zero-target manufacturing facility continues to progress on schedule with all equipment for the first phase now on site. Our team at Exro Vehicle Systems in Michigan secured a design project with a leading Tier-1 automotive supplier delivering our company's first revenues in 2022, and we announced two major supply agreements for our Coil Drive Systems with initial purchase orders backed by multiyear sales agreements for both our low voltage and high voltage product lines. As we look to the second half of 2022 and into 2023, we are excited to continue to execute for our shareholders. While there are bound to be bumps in the road, like those most companies are facing these days, our technology is de-risked, we are recognized as a differentiator in the electric vehicle space, and momentum with our customers continues to build."

During the quarter the Company continued to focus on the construction of its world-class manufacturing facility in Calgary, Alberta. During Q2, the delivery of all equipment related to the phase one surface mount technology ("SMT") line was completed which allowed the Company to fit the last three panels in the cleanroom east wall and prepare for the cleanroom HVAC start up. Exro continues to remain on schedule for construction of the manufacturing facility and expects to have the development process completed in the second half of 2022, allowing the Company to exercise the line by assembling Printed Circuit Board Assemblies ("PCBAs") for internal use and evaluation.

In addition, the Company entered into several agreements during Q2, including a secured purchase order through Exro Vehicle Systems, a division of Exro Technologies Inc., with a leading Tier-1 automotive supplier to provide more than $USD 1 million in engineering design and consulting services. Under the terms of the purchase order, Exro will deliver design and installation services for a custom electric powertrain system that features a custom battery pack solution. The custom system, designed for a light-duty on-road vehicle, will also integrate with many automotive original equipment manufacturer (OEM) systems, including power and control architectures. Exro's Vehicle Systems division will execute this order from its 15,000 square foot facility in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

On April 22, 2022 the Company announced that its Coil DriverTM technology received a Gold Edison Award for Best New Product in manufacturing, logistics and transportation at the 2022 Edison Awards Gala in Fort Myers, Florida.

On May 3, 2022 Exro announced it has signed an agreement for the sale of up to 2,500 units with electric bus manufacturer Vicinity Motor Company. The agreement commences with a first lot purchase order of 100 units. Over the 36-month term of the agreement, Exro will plan to deliver an increasing volume of its Coil Drive System for up to 2,500 units that includes both a Coil Driver™ and an electric motor, which were designed to meet Vicinity's specific requirements to deploy clean, affordable and accessible electric buses across North America. Exro will also support the development of Vicinity's electric motor chassis for Class 5/6 bus configurations and provide engineering services to enable AC fast-charging using Coil Driver™. Upon complete execution, Vicinity Lightning buses optimized with Coil Driver™ are expected to be on the road in the near term and accessible for private and public transit use in several forward-looking cities in North America.

On May 11, 2022 Exro announced it has signed an agreement with ev Transportation Services, Inc. to supply an initial quantity of 1,000 units of its 100V Coil Drive System beginning in 2023 for use in evTS model year 2023 FireFly vehicles. The agreement commences with an initial purchase order of 1,000 Coil Drive System units, which consists of a Coil Driver™ controller and an optimized electric motor. Over the 36-month term of the agreement, Exro will plan to deliver an increasing volume of its Coil Drive System with production beginning in 2023. With this agreement, evTS FireFly ESVs optimized with Exro's Coil Driver™ will be used to execute essential services in leading sustainability-minded cities around the world.

On August 9, 2022 the Company announced it has initiated the process to obtain Underwriter Laboratories ("UL") certification for its Energy Storage System (ESS), powered by its patented Battery Control System™ (BCS) technology. The submission for UL certification marks a significant milestone for Exro's ESS in its continued path to commercialization. The submission enables the Company to secure pilot locations and proceed with in-field validations of the ESS on specific locations and comes ahead of the Company's anticipated timing. UL certifications demonstrate that products have been tested to applicable industry-wide standards. UL is widely recognized as the long-time safety science leader and the organization's expertise provides credibility to regulators and the broader marketplace.

SECOND QUARTER 2022 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

For the six months ended June 30, 2022

  • Comprehensive loss of $(18,911,341) (2021 – $10,419,364).
  • Selling, general and administration expense increased by $3,894,928 to $5,823,825
  • Payroll and consulting fees increased by $3,349,229 to $6,071,033
  • Research and development increased by $1,263,935 to $4,287,112
  • Share based payments expense decreased by $3,487,613 to $1,539,898

For the three months ended June 30, 2022

  • Comprehensive loss of $8,739,338 (2021 – $3,742,844).
  • Selling, general and administration expense increased by $2,160,902 to $3,169,827

As the Company continues to progress additional resources are required in order to meet both the short and long-term goals linked to commercialization. Research and development expenses increased by 42% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as the Company continues to deliver against its strategic and commercial partnership projects. Exro continues to recruit top talents and increase the awareness of its technologies and progress.
