🚀 Ducati Launch: Ducati V21L race bike debuted at IAA Munich powered by QS solid-state (QSE-5) cells. Real-world validation of Cobra process performance.
🏭 Execution: Began shipping Cobra-based B1 samples. Eagle Line pilot production (automation in San Jose) on schedule.
🤝 Partnerships:
• VW Group collab deepens via Ducati demo
• New JDA + active Top-10 OEM engagement
• Corning + Murata expand QS ecosystem for ceramic manufacturing
💰 Financials:
• GAAP Net Loss $105.8 M (vs $119.7 M YoY)
• Adj. EBITDA -$61.4 M (in line)
• CapEx $9.6 M → FY guide cut to $30–40 M
• Liquidity $1.0 B → Runway through 2030
• Customer billings $12.8 M (new metric showing early traction)
📈 Outlook: Capital-light licensing model gaining momentum.
Focus: Eagle Line automation + customer billings growth through VW / PowerCo / Corning ecosystem.
Sentiment: Bullish LT holders → QS showing real execution + cash discipline.

• Positive surprise scenario: Clear commercial milestone + strong partner commentary → stock could rally toward or beyond the upper bound of the implied move (~+15% or more).
• Disappointment scenario: Missed milestone, weak guidance, or no new news → stock could fall by ~-15% or more, especially since analysts already incline negative.
• Because the options market has baked in a ~±15% swing, the risk/reward is fairly balanced but leans toward risk given the skeptical analyst backdrop.
