Xos Hits New Milestones in Q2 2025 with Highest Revenue and Deliveries in the Company's History

Reduced year-over-year operating expenses by $4.7 million and posted lowest operating loss as a public company in the second quarter of 2025 Generated positive net cash provided by operating activities of $4.6 million in the second quarter of 2025 LOS ANGELES, Aug. 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Xos, Inc. (NASDAQ: XOS) (“Xos” or the “Company”), a leader in electric commercial vehicles and mobile charging solutions, today announced a breakout quarter by a number of measures. In the second quarter of 2025, Xos delivered record unit volumes, posted its highest revenue to date, turned in the lowest operating loss in the Company’s history since going public, and achieved positive free cash flow for the second time. Second Quarter 2025 Highlights: Delivered 135 units and generated $18.4 million in revenue, compared to 90 units and $15.5 million in the second quarter of 2024, marking the highest quarterly deliveries and revenues in Company history.Achieved gross margins of 8.8%, down from 20.6% last quarter, due to product mix and unfavorable inventory adjustments, and down from 13.1% in the second quarter of 2024.Reported lowest operating loss since going public at $7.1 million and reduced operating expenses by $4.7 million, a 35% year-over-year decrease, reflecting continued operational discipline and efficiency improvements.Achieved net cash provided by operating activities and positive free cash flow of $4.6 million, the highest in the Company’s history.Developed a plan to minimize 2025 and beyond tariff-related cost impacts, leveraging its global supplier network to secure critical materials and reduce exposure despite a shifting trade environment. The first half of 2025 marked a major turning point for Xos, as the Company operated nearly cash flow neutral, powered by disciplined execution, a nimble supply chain, and scalable delivery infrastructure. Xos’s fleet-first growth strategy continues to outperform in a volatile industry. UPS accounted for a substantial portion of Q2 deliveries, while deployments to FedEx ISPs and other large fleet operators expanded steadily. In a market where many startups are collapsing, Xos is not only delivering real vehicles to real customers, it’s getting paid. At the same time, Xos is building diversified revenue streams beyond vehicle sales. Our powertrain systems and mobile charging Hubs are gaining meaningful traction, giving fleets a vertically integrated solution for electrification. These segments have the potential for further growth in the second half of the year, reinforcing Xos’s evolution from a truck manufacturer to a complete electrification platform. “This is what disciplined execution looks like,” said Dakota Semler, CEO of Xos. “We delivered more vehicles, more revenue, and more free cash flow than ever before, while cutting costs and strengthening our partnerships with some of the most respected fleets in the world. Q2 2025 is the clearest sign yet that Xos is not only surviving the headwinds facing the EV industry, we’re positioned to lead through them.” Second Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights (in millions)30 Jun 202531 Mar 202531 Dec 2024Cash and cash equivalents$8.8$4.8$11.0Inventories$31.0$38.0$36.6 Three Months Ended(in millions)30 Jun 202531 Mar 202530 Jun 2024Revenues$18.4$5.9$15.5Gross profit$1.6$1.2$2.0Non-GAAP gross profit(1)$0.3$0.9$2.0Loss from operations$(7.1)$(9.3)$(11.4)Net loss$(7.5)$(10.2)$(9.7)Non-GAAP operating loss(1)$(6.9)$(8.1)$(9.7) ____________________________(1) For further information about how we calculate Non-GAAP financial measures, such as Non-GAAP gross profit, Non-GAAP operating loss, and free cash flow, see below for the reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures provided in the tables included in this release. 2025 Outlook: Xos is maintaining its revenue and Unit Delivery outlook for 2025. Xos is revising its outlook for 2025 Non-GAAP operating loss due to changes in the expected product mix for the second half of the year and increased expected costs due to tariffs on parts and commodities as follows: Revenue$50.2 to $65.8 millionNon-GAAP operating loss(1)(2)$26.9 to $24.4 million Unit Deliveries(3)320 to 420 units ____________________________(1) Previously $17.2 to $14.0 million.(2) This press release does not provide a forward-looking reconciliation from Non-GAAP operating loss to net loss, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, due to the uncertainty and the potential variability of inputs of the financial information. For the same reason, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.(3) Unit deliveries forecast includes stepvans, stripped chassis and our powertrain and Xos Hub products. “This quarter marks a significant milestone in our journey - delivering record revenue, record unit deliveries, record free cash flow, and our lowest operating loss since going public,” said Liana Pogosyan, Chief Financial Officer of Xos. “We continued to achieve positive gross margins and delivered positive cash flow from operating activities for the quarter, reinforcing our confidence that we’re building a solid foundation for sustained growth and profitability. Despite ongoing tariff and cost pressures, we remain proactive in managing these challenges while positioning Xos for continued growth through the rest of 2025 and beyond.” The outlook provided above is based on management beliefs and expectations as of the date of this press release. The results are based on assumptions that are believed to be reasonable as of this date, but may be materially affected by many factors, as discussed below in our “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” disclaimer. Actual results may vary from the outlook above and the variations may be material. The Company undertakes no intent or obligation to publicly update or revise any of these projections, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures The financial information in this press release has been presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as well as on a non-GAAP basis to supplement Xos's unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial results. Xos's non-GAAP financial measures include operating cash flow less CapEx (Free Cash Flow), non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP gross profit, which are defined below. “Operating cash flow less CapEx (Free Cash Flow)” is defined as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities minus purchases of property and equipment. “Non-GAAP operating loss” is defined as loss from operations adjusted for stock-based compensation, inventory write-downs and physical inventory and other adjustments. “Non-GAAP gross profit” is defined as gross profit (loss) minus inventory write-downs and physical inventory and other adjustments. Xos believes that the use of operating cash flow less CapEx (Free Cash Flow), non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP gross profit reflects additional means for management and investors to use when evaluating Xos's ongoing operating results and trends. The presentation of these measures should not be construed as an inference that Xos's future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. It is important to note Xos's computation of operating cash flow less CapEx (Free Cash Flow), non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP gross profit may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures computed by other companies, because not all companies may calculate operating cash flow less CapEx (Free Cash Flow), non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP gross profit in the same fashion. Non-GAAP information is not prepared under a comprehensive set of accounting rules and therefore, should only be read in conjunction with financial information reported under GAAP when understanding Xos's operating performance. A reconciliation between historical GAAP and non-GAAP financial information is provided in this press release.
