On October 3, 2024, the U.S. Department of  Energy (“DOE”) Loan Programs Office (“LPO”) announced that EVgo  received conditional commitment for a loan guarantee of up to $1.05 billion of  debt financing under its Title 17 program to accelerate expansion of EVgo’s fast charging network across  the U.S. The proposed financing will be provided directly by the Federal Financing Bank as a loan, guaranteed by DOE, and structured  as a limited recourse project financing. Revenue

Total revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased $32.4 million, or 92%, to $67.5 million compared to $35.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. As further discussed below, the increase in revenue was primarily due to a $13.3 million increase in retail charging revenue, an $11.4 million increase in eXtend revenue, a $4.6 million increase in commercial charging revenue, and a $2.8 million increase in OEM charging revenue.

Charging Revenue, Retail. Charging revenue, retail, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased $13.3 million, or 100%, to $26.7 million compared to $13.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Period-over-period growth was primarily due to an overall increase in throughput driven primarily by increased charging volume from a greater number of customers and more throughput per customer and, to a lesser extent, price increases.

Charging Revenue, Commercial. Charging revenue, commercial, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased $4.6 million, or 113%, to $8.6 million compared to $4.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Period-over-period growth was primarily due to higher charging volumes by the Company’s public fleet customers and, to a lesser extent, price increases.

Charging Revenue, OEM. Charging revenue, OEM, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased $2.8 million, or 191%, to $4.3 million compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Period-over-period growth was primarily due to an increase in active OEM customers and increased throughput per customer.

Regulatory Credit Sales. Regulatory credit sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased $0.4 million, or 21%, to $2.2 million compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 due to the impact of increased throughput, partially offset by decreased market prices.

Network Revenue, OEM. Network revenue, OEM, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased $0.2 million, or 15%, to $1.3 million compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The period-over-period increase was due to increased marketing activities and membership fees from OEM customers, partially offset by decreased breakage.

eXtend Revenue. eXtend revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased $11.4 million, or 109%, to $21.9 million compared to $10.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to an increase in construction projects in process or completed, partially offset by decreased equipment sales, compared to the same prior-year period.

Ancillary Revenue. Ancillary revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024 decreased $0.3 million, or 9%, to $2.6 million compared to $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to decreased engineering and construction services. 

Cost of Sales

Charging Network. Charging network cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased $13.3 million, or 86%, to $28.9 million compared to $15.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in charging network cost was primarily due to a $9.0 million increase in usage-related energy costs resulting from increased throughput and a $4.3 million increase in non-energy charging costs.

Other. Other cost of sales for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased $10.4 million, or 101%, to $20.8 million compared to $10.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase in other cost of sales was primarily due to an increase in costs related to eXtend, partially offset by a decrease of $0.4 million in costs related to ancillary revenue.

Depreciation, Net of Capital-Build Amortization. Depreciation, net of capital-build amortization, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased $2.9 million, or 34%, to $11.5 million compared to $8.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 due to the growth of EVgo’s charging network.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased to $6.4 million compared to $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 primarily due to increased gross profit from charging revenues and eXtend revenue, partially offset by increased depreciation, net of capital-build amortization. Gross margin for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was 9.4% compared to 1.7% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 primarily due to

higher margins from charging revenue resulting from improved leveraging of charging station costs, partially offset by lower margins due to decreased contributions from higher margin ancillary revenues and regulatory credit sales in the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same prior-year period.

Operating Expenses

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 increased $1.1 million, or 3%, to $33.1 million compared to $32.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by a $1.0 million increase in payroll due to an increase in the overall headcount during the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same prior-year period and a $0.7 million increase in legal and professional services, partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in impairment expense.

Depreciation, Amortization and Accretion. Depreciation, amortization and accretion expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 was $5.0 million. 

Operating Loss and Operating Margin

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, EVgo had an operating loss of $31.8 million, a decrease of $4.6 million, or 13%, compared to $36.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. 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.

Net Loss

Net loss for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $33.3 million, compared to a net loss of $28.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The change was primarily driven by an $8.5 million impact from changes in the fair values of the warrant and earnout liabilities and a $1.1 million increase in general and administrative expenses, partially offset by increased gross profit of $5.8 million.
