Dear FFIE Stockholder,
Thank you for your continued trust and support. At Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (“Company” or “FFIE”), our current key focus is on the upcoming delivery of our Ultimate Intelligent TechLuxury product, the FF 91 Futurist. With the most recent financing commitment of $135 million, we are fulfilling our pledge in our December 15, 2022 Global Business Update and are confident in our start of production (“SOP”) by March 30, 2023 assuming timely receipt of financing from our investors. The Company also expects to begin deliveries of the FF 91 Futurist vehicles by the end of April 2023, assuming timely receipt of financing from our investors and timely supply of parts from our vendors. We believe that this $135 million commitment, along with $370 million in committed funding from other investors, including our Standby Equity Purchase Agreement with Yorkville Advisors which are all subject to certain conditions, as well as up to $160 million in additional optional financings from existing investors provide the Company with sufficient capital to ramp production well beyond Q2 2023.
To further strengthen our balance sheet and fund our production ramp, we are currently finalizing an additional $50 million raise. We have already received non-binding indications of interest from investors for nearly the full amount. Many of you have previously indicated an interest to invest. In response to these requests, we would like to invite accredited investors[1]this opportunity to invest alongside our other investors at this exciting turning point, as the company marches towards FF91 SOP. We expect once we start production and delivery of the FF 91 Futurist vehicles, our cost of capital will drop considerably as we continue to hit milestones and generate revenue.
If you are a current FFIE stockholder, an accredited investor and this is something you are interested in exploring, please email us at: IR@ff.com so that we can enter into a temporary confidentiality agreement to present additional information regarding this offering. We ask you to give us an indication of your interested investment amount by no later than March 15, 2023.
FFIE is immensely grateful to its stockholders for their unwavering trust and appreciate their continued support. In the past few months, we have taken steps to strengthen our board and management, and we are dedicated to ensuring the best interests of our stakeholders. These efforts demonstrate our commitment to our promises as the Company establishes a strong foundation to achieve the ultimate goal of generating value for its stakeholders.
FF is the pioneer of the Ultimate Intelligent TechLuxury ultra spire market in the intelligent EV era, and a disruptor of the traditional ultra-luxury car civilization.
FF is not just an EV company, but also a software-driven company of intelligent internet AI product. Ultimately, FF aims to become a User Company by offering a shared intelligent electric mobility ecosystem.
We envision the growth of FF in three phases:
- Our Phase 1 goal is to deliver the FF 91 Futurist Alliance, FF 91 Futurist and FF 91 to our global ultra spire users with high quality and high product power, thereby disrupting traditional ultra-luxury brands, and ultimately becoming the top leader in the global spire user market. We are in the process of developing our 5-year business plan. The Company’s goal is to create a profitable business with operating cashflow breakeven in 2025.
- As we introduce more upcoming vehicle models, the user ecosystem will begin to take shape and we expect that our hardware revenues will grow, and the eco revenues, which include internet apps, software, and sharing, will also grow as well. Our Phase 2 goal is to establish ourselves as a major player in the high-value user market.
- During Phase 3, FF intends to sustain the growth of its hardware revenues and eco revenues, which we believe will constitute an increasingly substantial portion of the overall profit.
Competing with Ferrari, Maybach, Rolls Royce, and Bentley as the only next-gen Ultimate Intelligent TechLuxury EV product, the FF 91 Futurist offers a unique and intelligent EV experience with extreme technology and an ultimate user experience. The FF 91 Futurist is undergoing a series of final vehicle validation and testing before production and delivery in the coming months. Among them, the FF 91 Futurist is certified at an EPA range of 381 miles, which is the longest EPA range among electric crossovers and SUVs in the world and nearly 50-70 miles more range than similar competitors. With a 0-60 mph time of just 2.27 seconds, the FF 91 Futurist beats nearly all competitors in the ultra-luxury market segment. Currently, we are making every effort to prepare for FF 91 Futurist production based on a detailed production plan at our FF ieFactory California. At the same time, we will continue to promote the efficient implementation of FFIE's US-China dual-home market and dual-DNA strategy to ensure our success in both of these two major global markets.
Once again, thank you for your trust, support, and faith in us. Stay tuned for further updates from us and we look forward to continuing our partnership with you for many years to come.
Sincerely,
