Lucid Q3 Production Plunges 38% as It Draws $400M From Term Loan
LCID sits 58% above its 52-week low of $2.37.
Summary
Lucid produced only 2,954 vehicles in Q3, a 38% drop after cutting its second shift, while deliveries came in at 3,806. The company also drew $400M from its delayed-draw term loan on Oct 6, pushing outstanding debt to $2.10B with just $400M of unused capacity left. This follows the Q2 report that showed a $1.03B loss and an 18% workforce reduction. The production decline signals continued operational strain, and the loan draw underscores tight liquidity despite the $1.4B cost-savings target. Q3 earnings are scheduled for Nov 9, which will reveal whether the Gravity SUV demand rebound is enough to offset the production shortfall.
