21Q3 ARVL ER Transcript

21Q3 ARVL ER Transcript

  • https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/ARVL/earnings/transcripts
  • ARVL is not an automative biz. It is a platform technology biz. 
  • Our First Bus to be used for validation has been completed, which is an important milestone for the company. And I can share it is a remarkable product.
    • 才是第一台Bus,按照Sandy Munro的说法,这是phase 0,是Lab到生产线的第一步
  • 5 platforms: van, large van, bus, bus for merging market, car
  • 下一步是create tens of vehicle platforms
  • We have revised our ‘22 expectations with a more conservative view - 这句话完蛋了。 Withdraw our long-term forecast. SPAC的时候吹牛吹的太大了
  • 2400 employee. 
  • Expectation: Q2 2022 production of bus, Q3 2022 van. 
    • Rock Hill开始equipment installation
    • ARVL有个很奇怪的concept - Microfactory
  • CFO:
    • 381M UK$, Capex 81M UK$,还能支撑4个Qtr?
    • Revenue is expected to start in the second half of 2022 and be weighted towards the fourth quarter. 不太可能啊,刚刚一辆测试车,一年就生产?
  • QA:
    • Michael Filatov with Berenberg: One of your competitors sort of on the bus side puts out sort of a public market bid universe for the buses. 这是谁啊?
  • Analysts很惊讶slower ramp up of production. 现在开始怀疑他microfactory的概念,原本的好处是low capex,但是ARVL开始bring in电池的生产,还有delay
  • 我看了一眼,上个Qtr ER,完全没有任何的预警,相当positive,多少新订单,production on track,这次太意外了
