Forward-looking Statements

This press release contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements in this press release include our beliefs regarding our financial position and operating performance and business objectives for 2025, along with our expectations with respect to the production agreements, including with Daimler Truck, as well as engagement and deployments with other customers and partners during 2025 and after, including the global top 10 passenger OEM mentioned in this press release and SICK AG, our future production plans, the timing of Atlas Ultra SOP and our ability to access capital under our preferred equity facility. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this press release, including, but not limited to: (i) the fact that Aeva is an early stage company with a history of operating losses and may never achieve profitability, (ii) Aeva’s limited operating history and limited history of shipping significant product volumes, (iii) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations and to identify and realize additional opportunities, (iv) the ability for Aeva to have its products selected for inclusion in OEM products, (v) the ability to manufacture at volumes and costs needed for commercial programs, (vi) no assurance that any of our customers will ever complete testing and validation with us or that we will receive any billings or revenues in connection with such programs or that such customers will continue such programs, (vii) the need to conclude definitive deployment or production agreements with potential customers, including those mentioned in this release, (viii) that any validation orders will result in larger orders, (ix) that any programs into which our products may be designed will result in significant end customer sales, (x) that any of the opportunities referenced in this press release will result in significant deployments of our products, (xi) unforeseen project delays or product issues, such as difficulties or delays in shipping, manufacturing or installation, (xii) end customer acceptance of the platform, (xiii) revenue recognition rules, (xiv) our ability to reduce costs and unforeseen expenses, and (xv) other material risks and other important factors that could affect our financial results that are further described in our filings with the SEC. Please refer to our filings with the SEC, including our most recent Form 10-K and Form 10-Q. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and Aeva assumes no obligation and does not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Aeva does not give any assurance that it will achieve its expectations.

Non-GAAP Information

In addition to our financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we present non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP net loss per share. “Non-GAAP operating loss” is defined as GAAP operating loss before stock-based compensation and litigation settlement, net. “Non-GAAP net loss per share” is defined as non-GAAP net loss divided by weighted average shares outstanding, basic and diluted. “Non-GAAP net loss” is defined as GAAP net loss before stock-based compensation, litigation settlement, net and change in fair value of warrant liability.

We believe that non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP net loss per share, when taken together with the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our core business, results of operations, or outlook. We consider non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP net loss per share to be important measures because they help illustrate underlying trends in our business and our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis.

However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations, including that they exclude certain expenses that are required under GAAP, which adjustments reflect the exercise of judgment by management. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly-titled non-GAAP financial measures or ratios differently or may use other financial measures or ratios to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of non-GAAP operating loss and non-GAAP net loss per share as tools for comparison. Reconciliations are provided at the end of this release to the most directly comparable financial measures in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review our U.S. GAAP financial measures and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
