Business Highlights for the First Quarter 2024 and Recent Developments

 

   

Secured Production Certificate from CAAC, Clearing Path for Mass Production of EH216-S

EHang successfully obtained the Production Certificate (“PC”) for its EH216-S passenger-carrying pilotless electric vertical takeoff and landing (“eVTOL”) aircraft. The PC was issued by the Civil Aviation Administration of China (“CAAC”) and it allows EHang to mass produce EH216-S. Following the groundbreaking obtainment of the Type Certificate (“TC”) and the Standard Airworthiness Certificate (“AC”) for the EH216-S, the world’s first PC in the global eVTOL industry is another remarkable achievement and a noteworthy leap forward to mass production for the eVTOL aircraft and the upcoming commercial operations.

 

   

Government Cooperation for UAM in Wuxi, China with Conditional Purchase Orders for 100 Units of EH216-S

In March 2024, EHang cooperated with the local government of Wuxi, Jiangsu Province for UAM, and received conditional purchase orders for 100 units of EH216-S. The local government will provide support for EHang’s future eVTOL operations in Wuxi across multiple use cases including passenger transportation, aerial sightseeing, firefighting and emergency. As part of the conditional purchase order, the Company has delivered 10 units of EH216-S to a customer in Wuxi in the first quarter of 2024.

 

   

Expanded UAM Project to Luohu District in Shenzhen, China

In January 2024, EHang expanded its UAM project in Shenzhen to include Luohu district in addition to Bao’an district. The Company forged a strategic partnership with the Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television, Tourism, and Sports of Luohu District for jointly developing aerial tourism and transportation services with EHang’s pilotless eVTOL aircraft. A new UAM operation center is planned to be set up in the Luohu Sports & Leisure Park during 2024.

 

   

Cooperated with GAC to Strengthen Capability for Future Production

In February 2024, EHang reached a strategic cooperation agreement with Guangzhou Automobile Company Co., Ltd. (601238.SH, 02238.HK, “GAC “), along with the Management Committee of Guangzhou Airport Economic Zone, and the Administrative Committee of Guangzhou Economic and Technological Development District, for facilitating the high-quality development of the low-altitude economy in Guangzhou. GAC is set to leverage its extensive expertise in smart manufacturing and its well-structured industrial chain to accelerate the future production, adoption and market expansion of EHang’s passenger-carrying eVTOL aircraft.

 

   

Formed Strategic Partnership with GBT to Jointly Develop World’s First Ultra-Fast/eXtreme Fast Charging Batteries for eVTOL

In April 2024, EHang established a strategic partnership with Guangzhou Greater Bay Technology Co., Ltd. (“GBT”), a leading ultra-fast charging battery provider in China, for the research and development of the world’s first Ultra-Fast Charging (“UFC”)/eXtreme Fast Charging (“XFC”) battery solutions for EHang’s eVTOL aircraft. Based on EHang’s eVTOL aircraft (including EH216-S, VT-30 and others), EHang and GBT will jointly develop eVTOL power cells, batteries, packs, charging piles and energy storage systems that meet the airworthiness standards of the CAAC as well as the 4H standards (i.e., high energy density, high cycle life, high instantaneous charge-discharge rate, and high safety), for the adaption and adoption of ultra-fast charging power batteries in EHang’s eVTOL aircraft. Furthermore, EHang and GBT will gradually develop fast-charging piles, stations and other infrastructures to establish an ecosystem for future commercial operations.

Expansion in UAE: Sealed Strategic Collaboration with MLG and ADIO, Delivered 5 Units of EH216 Series and Completed Debut Flights in UAE

In the first quarter of 2024, EHang delivered 5 units of the EH216 series to Wings Logistics Hub, a customer from the United Arab Emirates (“UAE”) with whom EHang had formed a long-term strategic partnership in December 2023 with a plan to purchase up to 100 units of the EH216 series.

In April 2024, EHang partnered with Multi Level Group (“MLG”), a leading fintech Company in the Middle East and North Africa (“MENA”) region, and the Abu Dhabi Investment Office (“ADIO”) to drive eVTOL development in the UAE and beyond.

Additionally, EH216-S successfully completed a demo flight in Abu Dhabi in April, marking the first of its kind for passenger-carrying pilotless eVTOL in the UAE and Middle East. The EH216-F and EH216-L also completed debut flights in the UAE, showcasing a variety of UAM use scenarios for pilotless eVTOL aircraft.

 

   

Overseas Development: Partnership with Telefónica Tech in Spain, EH216-S Debut Flight in Latin America, UAM Center and Continuing Flights in Japan

In February 2024, EHang entered into a strategic alliance with Telefónica Tech, a subsidiary of world-leading telecommunications service provider Telefonica. The two companies will partner up on network connectivity solutions for deploying UAM intelligent solutions in Europe and Latin America.

In March 2024, EH216-S successfully completed its debut flight in Costa Rica, Latin America for demonstrating aerial sightseeing and intra resort transportation use cases.

In March 2024, Japan’s first UAM center was established in Tsukuba City, Ibaraki Prefecture. Developed by AirX in collaboration with Tsukuba Airlines, this state-of-the-art facility serves as a demonstration flight site, ground infrastructure, and maintenance base for EHang’s various pilotless eVTOL aircraft in the region, including EH216-S. The EH216-S pilotless eVTOL aircraft has successfully conducted flights across 12 cities in Japan, showcasing its versatility in various use cases, including aerial sightseeing, island transportation, aerial logistics, and emergency services.

 

   

Appointment of Co-Chief Operating Officer

In April 2024, EHang announced that the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has appointed Mr. Zhao Wang as the Co-Chief Operating Officer (“Co-COO”) of the Company, effective on April 9, 2024. Mr. Wang has extensive experience and expertise in information technology and operations management alongside a proven track record for successfully integrating these technologies into cultural tourism projects and related management for large corporations, business operations and strategic leadership. As Co-COO, Mr. Wang will oversee EHang’s business operations, focusing on business development, product sales, marketing, commercial operations for UAM services.

Management Remarks

Mr. Huazhi Hu, EHang’s Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are thrilled for continuing our strong growth in both operational and financial performance. Particularly noteworthy is our obtainment of the PC from the CAAC for our EH216-S. Receiving such a certification is a milestone that positions us as the pioneering entity in the global eVTOL industry, a significant stride towards mass production and commercial operations for eVTOL aircraft. The certification accomplishments, coupled with accelerated government support aimed at promoting the high-quality development of the low-altitude economy, also spurred a surge in inquiries and orders from diverse entities in China and overseas, including governments and scenic operators. Consequently, we achieved a new record high in deliveries for 26 units of EH216-S during the quarter and impressive revenue growth.

 

3


With the EH216-S now equipped with all three certifications, we are poised to expedite our production and commercialization. This includes collaboration with regions where we have built up strategic partnerships to shape benchmark cities, showcasing the immense potential of the low-altitude economy. We also established a strategic partnership with GBT for the development of cutting-edge extreme fast charging batteries for eVTOL, paving the way for advancing high-efficiency operations in this sector.

Moreover, our international development is reinforced with the expansion of partnership and demo flights across the UAE, Spain, Costa Rica and Japan. Simultaneously, we are actively pursuing overseas validations of type certificate for EH216-S to streamline international order fulfillment and set the stage for broader market penetration.

Looking ahead, we will remain focused on moving forward commercial EH216-S operations for a new phase of growth, catering to intra-city mobility needs while addressing other needs in global UAM by research and development, testing, and airworthiness certification efforts for VT-30, our pilotless passenger-carrying lift-and-cruise eVTOL model tailored for inter-city travel. As a frontrunner in the eVTOL industry, we remain steadfast in offering fully autonomous, safe, and environmentally friendly eVTOL experiences to a wider customer base worldwide to spearhead the development of the low-altitude economy.”

Mr. Conor Yang, EHang’s Chief Financial Officer, stated, “Driven by our certifications and favorable government policies, we achieved stellar financial results. We exceeded our guidance with first-quarter revenue growing 178% year-over-year to reach RMB61.7 million, reflecting robust demand for our proprietary EH216 pilotless eVTOL vehicles.

We also delivered positive operating cash flow for the second consecutive quarter, underscoring an improvement in our financial situation. We believe our diligent preparation for commercial operations equips us for maintaining this upward trajectory and will further foster ongoing expansion while capitalizing on our core capabilities to propel growth within the UAM sector.”

Safe Harbor Statement

This press release contains statements that may constitute “forward-looking” statements pursuant to the “safe harbor” provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements can be identified by terminology such as “will,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “aims,” “future,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “likely to” and similar statements. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about management’s beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, including but not limited to those relating to certifications, our expectations regarding demand for, and market acceptance of, our products and solutions and the commercialization of UAM services, our relationships with strategic partners, and current litigation and potential litigation involving us. Management has based these forward-looking statements on its current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections. While they believe these expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections are reasonable, such forward-looking statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond management’s control. These statements involve risks and uncertainties that may cause EHang’s actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses adjusted gross profit, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted sales and marketing expenses, adjusted general and administrative expenses, adjusted research and development expenses, adjusted operating loss, adjusted net loss, adjusted net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, adjusted basic and diluted loss per ordinary share and adjusted basic and diluted loss per ADS (collectively, the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) in evaluating its operating results and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. There was no income tax impact on the Company’s non-GAAP adjustments because the non-GAAP adjustments are usually recorded in entities located in tax-free jurisdictions, such as the Cayman Islands.

The Company believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures help identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be distorted by the effects of items of (i) share-based compensation expenses and (ii) certain non-operational expenses, such as amortization of debt discounts, which are included in their comparable GAAP measures. The Company believes that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures provide useful information about its operating results, enhance the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by its management members in their financial and operational decision-making.

The Non-GAAP Financial Measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Non-GAAP Financial Measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using the Non-GAAP Financial Measures is that they do not reflect all items of expense that affect the Company’s operations. Share-based compensation expenses have been and may continue to be incurred in the business and are not reflected in the presentation of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures. Further, the Non-GAAP Financial Measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited. The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the Non-GAAP Financial Measures to the nearest U.S. GAAP measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company’s performance.

Each of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures should not be considered in isolation or construed as an alternative to its comparable GAAP measure or any other measure of performance or as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or financial results. Investors are encouraged to review the Company’s most directly comparable GAAP measures in conjunction with the Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The Non-GAAP Financial Measures presented here may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Other companies may calculate similarly titled measures differently, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures to the Company’s data. The Company encourages investors and others to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.

For more information on the Non-GAAP Financial Measures, please see the table captioned “Unaudited Reconciliations of GAAP and Non-GAAP Results” set forth at the end of this press release.
