Analysis · WKHS · Manufacturing
Workhorse Group's Q2 2026 10-Q reveals a going concern warning, a material weakness in internal controls, and a net loss of $20.2 million for the quarter. The company has only $9.6 million in cash and used $40.6 million in operating activities in the first half of 2026. The filing also details the August 2026 credit agreement amendment, which increased borrowing capacity to $40 million but required issuing warrants for 1.5 million shares at $10 per share. The combination of severe cash burn, limited financing options, and internal control deficiencies makes this a critical update for investors.
