$75 million drawdown will support deployment of convenient, reliable public charging infrastructure nationwide

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- EVgo Inc. (NASDAQ: EVGO) (“EVgo” or the “Company”) today announced it has received its first drawdown of $75 million from its $1.25 billion guaranteed loan from the U.S. Department of Energy (“DOE”) Loan Programs Office (“LPO”) under its Title 17 Clean Energy Financing Program, which reached financial close in December 2024 after a thorough 18-month process. This and subsequent drawdowns over the 5-year deployment period will support the Company’s ongoing buildout efforts to deploy nationwide charging infrastructure. EVgo has already built the first new stalls financed by the loan and will continue to prioritize installations in amenity-rich locations offering retail, dining, shopping and service options across the United States.

“The timely completion of this first drawdown underscores EVgo’s operational expertise and ability to meet DOE requirements,” said EVgo CEO, Badar Khan. “EVgo’s comprehensive network plan helps address the growing demand for public charging infrastructure by bringing our industry-leading fast charging solutions to more drivers than ever before. DOE’s low-cost financing enables EVgo to more than triple our network size by 2029, building our operational and financial scale and expanding our geographic footprint.”

Building high-power public charging at scale bolsters range confidence for Americans as they consider the choice to drive an EV. Further, expanding fast charging infrastructure is critical to the success of the investments made by the automotive industry, which is expected to release over 30 new affordable EV models by the end of 20251 in addition to the more than 70 vehicle models already available to American consumers.2 With faster charge rates, standardized charging cables, and the rise of autonomous vehicles, demand for reliable charging continues to climb.

As part of EVgo’s $1.25 billion loan guarantee, the Company will construct approximately 7,500 new public fast charging stalls across the country, bringing EVgo’s total owned and operated network to at least 10,000 fast charging stalls across the U.S. by 2029.

TP, per the following article, it appears that it is a private investor selling out. I hope the article answers your question, as I'm not an expert in this area.

EVgo Stock Plummets as Biggest Investor Sells 23M Shares

Please help me understand how none of the proceeds go to EVGO.

LS Power will receive proceeds. It appears the LS Power is the infrastructure arm dedicated to installations while EVGO is the actual charging station company that manages and collects revenue from the stations.

Is the money going to the build-out shown in map on this page?

Maybe that money can be used to gobble up ChargePoint.

The decrease in operating loss was driven primarily by an increase in gross profit, partially offset by increased general and administrative expenses. Operating margin for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was negative 47.1% compared to negative 103.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 primarily due to improved leveraging of operating expenses and gross margin.

Interest Income

Interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased $1.1 million, or 38%, to $1.8 million compared to $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was due primarily to less cash and cash equivalents held in a high interest rate account by the Company and, to a lesser extent, lower interest rates during the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same prior year period.

Other (Expense) Income, Net 

Other (expense) income, net, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was de minimis.

Changes in Fair Values of Warrant and Earnout Liabilities

For the three months ended September 30, 2024, there was a $3.3 million loss resulting from the change in fair values of warrant and earnout liabilities compared to a $5.2 million gain for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The change between periods was primarily due to an increase in the fair value of the warrant and earnout liabilities during the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to a decrease during the same prior-year period. See “Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements – Note 10 – Fair Value Measurements” for more information.

EVgo and Delta Electronics Sign MOU to Co-Develop Next-Generation Charging Architecture
October 10 2024
https://ih.advfn.com/stock-market/NASDAQ/evgo-EVGO/stock-news/94697834/evgo-and-delta-electronics-sign-mou-to-co-develop

Co--development will improve customer experience, enhance charger reliability, and drive cost efficiencies with advanced firmware and hardware design

EVgo Inc. (NASDAQ: EVGO) (“EVgo” or the “Company”), one of the nation's largest public fast charging networks for electric vehicles (EVs), announced today that it has entered into a new memorandum of understanding (MOU) with longtime technology partner, Delta Electronics, Inc. (“Delta”), a global leader in power management and a provider of IoT-based smart green solutions, to jointly develop next-generation EV charging architecture. This new charging architecture is designed to provide EVgo with more control over the full customer experience while bolstering reliability and delivering increased cost savings and enhanced energy efficiency.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20241010971416/en/

Under the agreement, EVgo and Delta will expand their years-long collaboration to develop state-of-the-art fast chargers that will center on the customer experience. This will include several design features ranging from advanced software, all-in-one power electronics, contactless payment interface, ultra high-power 400kW dispensers, and extended cable length that allows for more maneuverability to easily reach any charge port location on all EV models, supporting EVgo’s commitment to serve all EV drivers, regardless of the make or model of their vehicle.

“EVgo is committed to delivering a superior experience for our customers and we continue to advance long-term solutions to maximize convenience and improve reliability,” said Dennis Kish, President of EVgo. “As the next step in our evolution, EVgo will leverage our learnings and experience from working with over one million customers across the U.S. to develop this next-generation charging architecture in collaboration with Delta Electronics with the goal of increasing consumer confidence in public EV infrastructure and supporting broader adoption of electric vehicles nationwide."

Austin Tseng, President of Delta Electronics (Americas), said, “Delta looks forward to collaborating further with EVgo as we pioneer the future of EV charging infrastructure by redefining the customer experience, enhancing charger reliability, and advancing energy conservation. Delta’s core competencies in high-efficiency power electronics and system integration will be key to this endeavor.”

The new charging architecture will also include key features to enhance energy efficiency and power distribution across sites by taking EVgo’s dynamic power sharing to the next level. Designed to align with battery advancements in coming years, EVgo’s next-generation charging technology will allow dynamic power sharing across as many as six charging stalls at a time. This extended power sharing ability enables EVgo to implement a variety of station configurations to suit a specific site’s needs, which will be critical as the Company continues to focus on building larger stall footprints to maximize customer experience and serve the growing number of EV drivers on the road.

EVgo expects to complete final design and rigorous interoperability testing in its Innovation Lab and deploy these new chargers by the second half of 2026. As part of this next evolution of EVgo’s charging architecture, the Company will also enhance its charger firmware and software capabilities to enable more detailed error codes and a more flexible interface to improve maintenance, reset times, and the overall customer experience.

These innovations will deliver faster, more efficient charging sessions by taking advantage of each vehicle’s unique charging curves, reducing energy consumption and costs while meeting the evolving needs of drivers. EVgo aims to lower its gross capital expense per stall by 30% while increasing peak power delivery by nearly 20 percentage points.

This co-development effort is happening in tandem with ReNew™ program, focused on creating a holistically better customer experience for EV drivers. Through ReNew, EVgo recently launched new diagnostic tools and capabilities to bolster reliability, continues to streamline the payment process with enhancements to Autocharge+, and is proactively addressing legacy equipment on its network while it invests in developing the charging infrastructure to come.

With these expansive investments in customer-centric hardware, firmware and software solutions, EVgo is continuing to build out a nationwide fast charging network to power an all-electric transportation future.
