A new generation of hydrogen engines unveiled: goodbye to FCEVs as you knew them
by D. García 05/10/2024
https://www.ecoticias.com/en/new-generation-hydrogen-engines/1881/
You are correct! 20 for 1 at 0.50 = $10.00 a share. I now believe it will be 30 for 1 and keeping it at this level or below gives them justifcation to do that. I also believe they will have positive news to release when they do the R/S and buyers waiting to support the stock price.
Share price rounded ------ 50 cents
so for every 20 shares of stock - I get one share of NEW NKLA (post RS)
20 shares of stock today at about .50 cents each is $10 - just the math
are you suggesting that post R/S the stock goes up 20%-40%
most others expect a haircut of say 10-20 percent post R/S
That would mean for 20 for 1 R/S $8-$9
I thimk they want to drop the price below 0.50 to get a 1-30 split!
DNU, thanks for posting the article on the Tesla Semi truck. I noticed that the truck still has a center seating position, which I thought they were considering changing from the original design, since they received negative feedback from truck drivers due to significantly reducing visibility (not being able to peak out of side window), as well as not being able to interact with manned booths such as at ports, security gates, toll booths, etc.
Link to article https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/news/tesla-impresses-another-new-company-using-its-semi-trucks-we-ve-been-able-to-push-these-tractors-well-beyond-expectations/ar-BB1m62CA
Below I highlighted two contradicting quotes from the article on this topic. The first quote states that truck drivers had to be trained on the unique central seating position of the Tesla truck. Really? Imagine telling a truck driver who's been driving trucks for a living for many years, that they have to be trained to drive an EV truck. Drivers of Nikola's trucks don't have to be trained to drive the trucks. This is because Nikola designed the truck with input from truck drivers.
The second quote makes no sense to me, and does not sound truthful.
Five MB drivers were trained on the unique central seating position and advanced features of the Tesla Semi, which aim to enhance driver visibility and safety.
"The Tesla Semi rises above any other tractor with mobility, center seat configuration, and precise movement that allows the driver to navigate safely," driver Casey Kamp raved.
I believe it will be a 1-20 RS. I still think we end up with a price between $12-14 a share.
Is there a possibility of a reverse split
0n Tuesday, Amazon.Com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN) revealed the first of twelve Volvo electric big rigs it intends to operate this year, starting at Southern California’s bustling Los Angeles/Long Beach port complex.
The e-commerce giant is already using eight of these semi trucks at the port, where regulations require all drayage trucks to have zero emissions by 2035.
Just one article
A source I do not know
but the article (maybe done with help from MUSK et al? for background info) --- is devoid of any biggies besides Pepsi

ok
on these modular sites --- HYLA makes money by "assuring supply of H and pumping it in" and then charges more than it paid ?
(v the joint ventures where I bluntly find no place for NKLA profit --- even as more stations are GREAT)
??
I think until we get the R/S out of thw way this is going to be dead money!
US aims to drastically reduce costs of hydrogen electrolysers within two years
The Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technologies Office also plans to demonstrate next-generation tech to produce extremely low-cost H2 by 2031

well lots of references to “national accounts” and large fleets in the conference call but don't think they mentioned Budweiser directly. Seems the new CFO is focussed on securing big deals giving up some initial revenue on the first few deliveries. Disappointed we didnt get more details on production numbers and what could be the limiting factor. but they got to 100 in April which would be c 20 for the month. so 60-70 in Q2 will be a nice achievement along with returning BEV 2.0 to dealers/customers
https://seekingalpha.com/article/4690286?gt=2858b65f1332a2c1
good morning all,
any news / updates on the Budweiser trucks
and looks like another at Wilmington nearby will be open soon.
https://www.hyla.co/stations/
cool
but - I think on a facebook thread? - it seemed like those two are headed to other alternatives than NKLA
agree - if WMT or Amazon or Fed Express or such put in an order - say for 100 trucks - that would be great . My uninformed view - guess is that its 50-50 one of the three will pick NKLA - soon
After today's news, what is the next catalyst?
DNU, Amazon and Walmart already have hydrogen refueling stations (supplied and maintained by Nikola's partner Plug Power) at dozens of their distribution centers all across the US supporting their material handling operations. These will simply need to be upgraded to support refueling Nikola's Class 8 hydrogen FCEV trucks. Both Amazon and Walmart could potentially submit orders to Nikola for hundreds of hydrogen FCEV trucks.
I see more needed - but depends BIG and BIGGER on inbound cash flow from
H truck sales
? income from HYLA - net
? income from BEV if NKLA has a market for 100 or so ALREADY built BEV
current Revenue rate leads to more than 100MM
Agree
(Would be interesting to understand how a customer does this "on their own" - in terms of measuring or guesstimating potential demand for H truck where there is no built up infrastructure)
at least 3 quarters available (at current rate but should start to get more revenues/lower cost per FCEV.
strategy has been to have 12 months cash on hand so may need another $100m raise
I missed that bullet.
I assume GTG have facilities in their depot(s) for hydrogen storage and dispensing.
There will be pockets of leading transport companies starting this way while near port public stations start to get rolled out.
DNU, what I believe they mean, is that in this recent sale in a new market in NY State, they were able to decouple the sale of hydrogen FCEV trucks from the deployment of new hydrogen refueling stations (as they have had to do so far in other markets, since the hydrogen refueling infrastructure is currently practically inexistent), apparently because the customer somehow found a way to provide their own refueling infrastructure (although not explicitly mentioned), thus they were able to enter a new market with less capital.

Hydrogen: Considerations in Fleet Use
Wednesday, May 8, 2024 | 2–3:30 p.m.
This webinar will focus on hydrogen as a transportation fleet. Come listen to subject matter experts discuss the logistics you should consider when using hydrogen as a fuel for your fleet.
Can anyone explain why sales went up but revenues are down.
Is this their way to keep stock below $1 to encourage voters to choose RS?
?????
can be decoupled from Hydrogen
WHAT and HOW
How does a company buy a truck that needs H in a world decoupled from Hydrogen ?
Help
cash burn
at this rate of income or double or ? - three quarters available
or do you see it differently ?
then this
which says - the pps is up ???
and compares Q1 24 v Q1 23 (which may have been BEV way back when ????)
and this is Barrons
WTF
https://finance.yahoo.com/m/ca2ea1f2-1b55-33ef-98e2-b9175ac27a4f/nikola-stock-rises-after.html
Is this right?
Missed REV for finished Q1 at 50%
and how are they reporting two quarters and slow down -- if to get two quarters - by month end March ? the author had to look at the end of last year and Q1 and I did not see a slow down
HELP --- are they simply wrong -- it is a REUTERS article !!! (so that has some cred?)
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/ev-truck-maker-nikola-misses-110748811.html
UK, another key highlight for me from the Q1 Earnings Report is the following excerpt from Slide 5 of the Presentation (link https://nikolamotor.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Q1-2024-Earnings-Deck_FINAL-pdf_05.06.24b.pdf) with emphasis on the last bullet:
a LONNNGGGGGG time since I played with options
if you wrote $1 call options - why would anyone call them away ? (Best I remember - the $1 Call has true value only if price exceeds $1 - as the buyer can buy the stock at $1 v say 1.15 ?)
?
UK, thank you for the insightful review of Q1 earnings.
Pretty decent numbers for Q1. Truck numbers indicate that by making VIN 100 of the CEV in April they should exceed their Q2 number (probably made 20 in April alone). If they make 100 in H1 that will leave 200-250 for the second half when hopefully the costs start to drop.
Battery supply seems to be the restriction - needed for BEVs and FCEVs.
cash burn not as high as expected - they are obviously focussed on this which is good news as far as any share dilution in the near term. will be interesting to hear the forecasts for the current quarter and rest of the year.
So many more trucks on the road than the Musk company!

Highlights
- Continued to execute our plan to ramp up hydrogen fuel cell electric trucks (FCEVs) in 2024
--- Wholesaled 40 FCEVs in Q1, all designated for end fleets, exceeding high-end of guidance range
--- Marked the second quarter of serial production of FCEVs; Program-to-date, Nikola has wholesaled 75 FCEVs
- Green shoots in new markets like N.Y., meeting the demands of fleet users beyond Calif.
- Expanded HYLA’s North American reach. During the quarter, we opened:
--- HYLA hydrogen modular refueling stations in Ontario and near the Port of Long Beach, Calif.
--- HYLA’s first hydrogen refueling station in Alberta, Canada to support fleets along the busy Edmonton to Calgary freight corridor
- Seeing opportunities in constructive green policies
- Completed first delivery of remediated BEV back to customer in Q1
PHOENIX – May 7, 2024 — Nikola Corporation (Nasdaq: NKLA), a global leader in zero-emissions transportation and energy supply and infrastructure solutions, via the HYLA brand, today reported financial results and business updates for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
“We continue to move forward rapidly and execute our plans. And please keep that in mind – we are in the execution phase, not the planning or concepting phase,” said Steve Girsky, President and CEO of Nikola. “Last quarter, I talked about getting on the field with the first deliveries of our hydrogen fuel cell electric trucks. Today, we are executing plays, competing, and cultivating more green shoots as we expand upon current markets and enter new ones.”
Hydrogen Fuel Cell Electric Truck
At the end of Q1, we exceeded the high-end of the guidance range by delivering 40 FCEVs, all designated for end fleets. That makes 75 wholesaled FCEVs in the first two quarters of serial production. We’re seeing green shoots with repeat and new fleets, some in new markets such as N.Y. While our initial focus has been Calif. and Canada, we can expand our reach to meet the demands of end fleet users virtually anywhere in the U.S.
Program-to-date, Nikola FCEVs have accumulated over 830,000 miles with an average fuel economy exceeding our target of 7.2 mi/kg. We’re doing what it takes to delight prospective and existing customers with the best possible experience.
Energy
Our HYLA team is executing its Hydrogen Highway Plan, and we remain on track. Previously we had committed to nine additional HYLA refueling stations in Calif. by year-end 2024. Now we are expecting to provide nine hydrogen fueling solutions by mid-year 2024 and 14 by year-end 2024. These solutions include modular fuelers and partner stations in Calif., Canada and our home station at our Coolidge, Ariz. manufacturing facility. We want to emphasize that building the hydrogen ecosystem requires industry wide collaboration for the benefit of all. We need partners and they come in different forms and stages of infrastructure development. The shared mission is to build an open ecosystem accessible to all.
Constructive Green Policies
We maintained our dominant market share of HVIP vouchers for Class 8 FCEVs, ending the quarter with 362 of 367 or 99% of the unredeemed vouchers that were requested in 2023 through March 2024. On the Class 8 BEV side, we ended Q1 with 85 unredeemed vouchers or 30% market share. While HVIP is only one program, we’re encouraged by the progress in constructive green policies. Two in particular, help us fund our business. CARB’s Heavy-Duty Omnibus Regulation allows us to monetize the NOx and particulate matter or PM credits we generate from selling zero-emissions trucks on a model year basis. We are pleased to confirm that Nikola has executed its first sale agreement for credits generated for Model Year 22 and revenue from this transaction will be recognized in Q2 2024. We expect future revenue from the sale of CARB credits to grow over time and be meaningful.
Battery-Electric Truck
Lastly, we completed the first delivery of a remediated BEV in Q1. We continue to prioritize returning BEVs to customers and dealers and now expect to complete remediation of these units by year-end 2024. Our ability to sell Nikola’s on-hand inventory, however, will be dependent upon future battery supply; we now expect to opportunistically sell on-hand inventory for revenue in 2025.
We’ve also taken this opportunity to “future proof” the BEV 2.0, as it now shares significant software commonality with the battery and operating systems on the FCEV, allowing customers to receive next-generation upgrades seamlessly over-the-air as they are deployed. We’ve kept our fleet users front and center as we’ve engineered over-the-air enhancements, including dynamic data gathering for predictive diagnostics, improved truck performance and field issue identification. We’ve also deployed new Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) features to effectively manage powertrain demand in aggressive route conditions such as mountainous driving.
Webcast and Conference Call Information

14 hydrogen stations = more hydrogen trucks!
I've been selling covered calls on half of my position. I was selling May $1.00 calls all day and if the stock is taken away from me I would be so happy!!
I just sat down again
oops - it is down
so - yes it could be a leak
or
some holders decided to not be in the stock when the ER comes out and would rather buy back in after or be out and out for a while
for me that is way too much work for a speculation - that I do not expect to pay off for at least 18 months
I wonder if the ER report is starting to leak out!
yup
they always seem to be light on at least 2 details we want
I assume they are producing as fast as they can (with one shift assumed)
I really do not know what FINAL number for Q1 they will give or repeat the last one. They can easily report April production and that is key IMO
Not sure they will hold back on purpose if indeed they are making serious gains in production. My sense is they still have supply restraints and are likely not making big noticeable gains in production - and that slower than any of us wanted ramp up - is part of the reason they are OK with beating up the PPS for now and then doing a RS ------ if it is going to work and they are going to get to 1,000 trucks a year - it is going to take time and money . We will see - and I do not think they have given up their first place position as their trucks appear very much liked. Then if the BEV is going back with some pace and is on the road and working - that adds.
We will see - but I do think things are OK but not ramping up as any of us would like
I've been selling covered calls this morning.
All I am listening to is the production numbers for both FCEV and BEV.
April was around 15 FCEV (as they did number 100 at the end of the month - probably not shipped to end user though
They need to tell us how they are ramping up and the supply chain pinch points and how they are being addressed (dual supplier for fuel tanks?).
The BEV numbers will be interesting now the battery issue is addressed and BEV 2.0 are in the field.
for the board to not consider a R/S the SP price would have to be way above $3 IMHO. If they can get back to $1 to keep nasdaq though we may heear them delay the R/S if cash management is under control. but to get the SP moving we need deliveries and ramp up forecasts.
I think tomorrows ER report will be a non event! He will give us a watered down report going forward even though the company may be doing better then what he says. He needs to keep the stock price here or lower to get the R/S! After the R/S is done they will come out with positive guidance to support the stock price. I own a lot of stock and I hope I'm wrong, but it's all starting to making sense to me.
We or ?
Saw this was about half an hour and with apologies took a pass
Is it clear from this or ? - how NKLA makes money on H ?
Seems to me - (and I am not arguing good or bad !!!!!) NKLA does a ton of partnering to get this going more completely and faster so the trucks it builds have the ability to refuel. But at each separate announcement - I can not find the source of profit for NKLA
e.g. Company A sets up or will set up a "station" and NKLA buys H from another Company - say Company B - to help Company A --- but unless NKLA is simply acting as a secondary supplier with a mark up - how is this making money for NKLA?
You could be correct, the volume really picked up in the last 20 minutes.
