Lucid Hits Record Low as Executives Tout Cash Runway and Gravity Ramp

Executives cite a multibillion-dollar liquidity runway extending into 2027 to reassure investors.

Overview

  • Lucid shares fell to a new low of $11.09 this week, putting the company’s market value near $3.6 billion after a roughly 96% decline from its 2021 peak.
  • Lucid’s communications chief pointed to an undrawn $2 billion PIF credit facility and $2 billion of refinanced convertible notes due in 2030/31, with leadership saying the company is funded well into 2027.
  • Management says it remains on track for about 18,000 vehicles in 2025, with Gravity expected to make up most of fourth-quarter output, implying more than 8,000 units needed in Q4 to meet the goal.
