Faraday Future Founder and Co-CEO YT Jia Shares Weekly Investor Update: Company to Announce Major Breakthrough of Its Bridge Strategy on August 16 in Pebble Beach
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) ('Faraday Future', 'FF' or the 'Company'), a California-based global shared intelligent electric mobility ecosystem company, today shared a weekly business update from YT Jia, Founder and Co-CEO of FF. 'This is our 14th weekly update, and also the third monthly edition. This week, we witnessed a turning point in the global economy. Following the U.S. Congress passing its first federal crypto legislation—the 'Genius Act'—the SEC also launched a major new initiative called Project Crypto. In my opinion, this marks a significant acceleration of blockchain integration into the U.S. financial system. It signals that the U.S. is building the next generation of Web3 infrastructure, driving a full-scale convergence between Web2 and Web3. More importantly, it represents a major shift in the global landscape of technology and finance, and the beginning of the next wave of innovation. Today also marks my 100th day as Co-CEO. Before we get into the results of our '100-Day Renewal,' I'd like to give you a preview of something even more important, a major strategic upgrade: On August 16th, at Pebble Beach, we'll officially unveil and kick off the second chapter of our Bridge Strategy. This will not only be a major milestone in the evolution of our Bridge Strategy — and we expect that it will also open up a new growth curve for FF. In addition, our upcoming Q2 earnings call will mark the first time since listing that we present our five-year performance outlook. This reflects our strong confidence in the future and signals that FF has reached a new stage in both governance and operations. Over the past 100 days, we've rolled out an unprecedented 'Ten-Punch Combo' transformations, delivering a full-scale refreshment from S1 to S7. Both our business fundamentals and capital fundamentals have taken a major leap forward. This lays a solid foundation and confidence for our next round of strategic upgrades. When I took office, I set out three main goals — in business, finance, and capital. By now, most of their milestone KPIs for Q3 have not only been met but exceeded. Key results include: First, we fully reshaped the corporate culture, the iron-willed combat strength has returned. The Lion-Wolf culture and fearless execution is emerging across the company. This spirit was powerfully demonstrated in the June 29th and July 17th product launches. Second, we successfully unveiled the FX Super One against the stunning backdrop of the Los Angeles skyline. As a First-Class EAI-MPV, this revolutionary product once again led transformation and ignited the industry, driving dual accumulation of both user equity and brand equity. With over 10,000 pre-orders received, we've fully explored the viability and competitive edge of the Co-Creation Ecosystem Online Direct Sales Model — a three-engine approach driven by user acquisition, user co-creation, and user operations. Today, we also launched the global co-creation campaign 'Design Its Face. Define Its Soul,' inviting you to upload your creative designs for the Super EAI F.A.C.E. avatar, and to join us in co-creating both the product and the technology — to build your very own EAI Avatar. We warmly welcome your participation! Third, FX Super One has officially entered the trial production phase at our Hanford, California factory. We're now deep into process planning and validation — defining manufacturing processes and quality standards, while ramping up training for engineers and production teams. Meanwhile, construction at our Ras Al Khaimah facility in the UAE is picking up speed, positioning us to begin regional deliveries in the Middle East by year-end. Fourth, the FF and FX Bridge Strategy, bridging the U.S. and China automotive industries, has advanced from Girder Erection to Bridge Closure. We've received strong support from top-tier Chinese manufacturers and engaged with influential stakeholders within the U.S. government. This includes closed-door meetings with more than a dozen members of Congress as well as a mention by Donald Trump Jr on a Podcast. We believe the policy climate will continue to shift in our favor. Fifth, our cash flow has improved significantly. Core operating expenses have been meaningfully reduced, while our financial processes and system management have seen major upgrades. These advances will be clearly reflected in our upcoming Q2 earnings report. Sixth, our capital fundamentals have undergone a transformational shift, reigniting market confidence. Our market cap has nearly tripled, we've been added to the Russell 3000 Index, and institutional investors — including BlackRock and Vanguard — have increased their positions substantially. Our 'Battle Against Illegal Short Selling' has delivered initial success. This reflects our firm commitment to putting 'Stockholders First.' In parallel, our strategic partnership with HabitTrade marks the first step in building a forward-looking ecosystem that brings together EAI Mobility, Web3, blockchain technology, crypto, and stablecoins. These first 100 days are not the finish line — they're the launchpad. But they've shown us one undeniable truth: with the right direction, unwavering conviction, and all-out execution, we can rebuild trust and redefine value. To every investor, user, supplier, and partner who has backed FF, FX, and myself throughout this comeback — thank you. Your belief has been the light guiding us through the headwinds. And in every 100 days ahead, we'll move faster, deliver with greater substance, and deepen our co-creation — to honor the trust of our users, shareholders, and every fighter in the FF family.'
