Rivian beats Q2 estimates and raises delivery guidance
Rivian beats Q2 estimates and raises delivery guidance
Rivian's Q2 earnings beat estimates on the top and bottom lines. They posted nearly $180M in gross profit with an 11% margin. Management raised delivery guidance for the full year and lowered their capex expectations. The stock only went up about 1% after the news.
A few other details from the report were interesting. Their liquidity looks solid. They finished Q2 with $5.3B in cash. If you add up future expected capital from VW, Uber, and a DOE loan, their total liquidity could reach around $14B.
Demand generation is also growing, with demo drives doubling compared to last year. On the software side, they plan to release point-to-point assisted driving by the end of this year, which is similar to Tesla's FSD. They are also aiming for a level 4 robotaxi by 2028.

Rivian’s improving gross profit and strong liquidity are encouraging, but the muted stock reaction shows investors still want proof that the growth can become consistently profitable.

i agree that investors are being cautious but seeing Rivian hit a gross profit is a massive step. the growth in demo drives shows people actually want these trucks.
