Exclusive-USPS blocks shipping of illicit vapes in boost for Big Tobacco
By Emma Rumney LONDON (Reuters) -The U.S. Postal Service has cracked down on distributors of unregulated vapes using its services for business shipments, letters reviewed by Reuters show, in a blow to a multi-billion dollar industry that has dented Big Tobacco's sales. The letters, previously unreported, show that USPS wrote to major New York-based distributor Demand Vape, blocking it from using its services after New York City's Law Department, which represents the city's government and officials in legal matters, provided evidence that its shipments broke laws. USPS' action stands to benefit tobacco giants including Altria and British American Tobacco, which have for years battled against unregulated vapes, mostly from China. Unregulated vapes lack the authorisation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration that is required for them to be legally sold in the United States, the world's largest market for smoking alternatives. USPS revoked Demand Vape's mailing exception last month after it received evidence the company shipped vapes lacking FDA authorisation and that violated a local flavour ban, a letter from USPS to the company, dated July 15, showed. "Your local Buffalo BME Office will not accept any packages from... Demand Vape that contain ENDS products," the letter read, referring to electronic nicotine delivery systems, another term for vapes. Demand Vape said it complied with relevant laws and was contesting the revocation, adding the industry operates in a "regulatory grey zone" with only a small number of FDA-authorised products that do not meet consumer demand. "We reject any characterisation that paints Demand Vape as anything other than a transparent, lawful and reputable business," it said in a statement. USPS did not respond to a request for comment. LIMITED EXCEPTIONS So far, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has authorised only 39 e-cigarette products. But unauthorised devices are widely available as authorities struggle to contain them. Under a 2021 law, USPS is restricted from mailing vapes directly to consumers, internationally and in most other circumstances. The limited exceptions include domestic shipments between businesses, which need a "mailing exception" and their shipments must comply with relevant laws. Some other large carriers, including FedEx, refuse to ship vapes. DHL only offers carriage for business shipments with prior approval. USPS has provided NYC's Law Department with a list of other vape firms it has granted mailing exceptions so it can assess whether they should be challenged, in line with legal requirements, Eric Proshansky, deputy chief of the city's division of affirmative litigation, told Reuters. This could further limit the number of carriers available to the unauthorised vape industry. Other options, such as using smaller carriers or handling freight directly, tend to be more costly. MOUNTING PRESSURE BAT estimated the unauthorised vape market was worth around 6 billion pounds ($8.05 billion) last year. It is, however, increasingly under pressure. This year's U.S. import tariffs and seizures at ports have reduced unauthorised vape imports. The FDA also wrote letters to 24 U.S.-based middlemen, including distributors that are crucial to the unauthorised vape market, as part of a crackdown in May. This has led to empty shelves in vape stores, said Tony Abboud, executive director of the Vapor Technology Association, which represents firms including Demand Vape. USPS revocations will further damage U.S. vape businesses, he said. One of the largest U.S. e-cigarette distributors, Demand Vape sells to some 5,000 retailers in 49 states, according to 2024 filings in a NYC lawsuit against the company. The evidence city attorneys provided to USPS included copies of invoices showing Demand Vape's sales of unauthorised e-cigarettes. Brands the FDA has specifically flagged as illegal to sell were among them, a separate letter reviewed by Reuters showed. ($1 = 0.7452 pounds)

Should You Buy Rivian Stock While It's Below $17?
Key Points Rivian's deliveries are stagnating in this challenging macro environment. But it expects the R2's launch to breathe fresh life into its business. Its stock would be undervalued if it can pull off that turnaround. 10 stocks we like better than Rivian Automotive › Rivian (NASDAQ: RIVN) posted its second-quarter earnings report on Aug. 5. The electric vehicle maker's revenue rose 13% year over year to $1.3 billion, exceeding analysts' expectations by $10 million. Its total deliveries declined 23% to 10,661 vehicles, but it offset that pressure with rising software and service revenues. Unfortunately, its gross margin -- which turned green in the first quarter of 2025 -- turned red again in the second quarter. It only produced 5,979 vehicles during the quarter, which marked a 38% drop from a year ago. It narrowed its net loss from $1.5 billion to $1.1 billion, but its loss of $0.80 per share still missed the consensus forecast by $0.16. Rivian's mixed numbers didn't impress the market, and the stock remains 30% below its 52-week high of $17.15 on May 20. Should you buy it before it bounces back? Why isn't Rivian impressing investors? Rivian sells three types of EVs: the R1T pickup, the R1S full-size SUV, and electric delivery vans for its top investor Amazon and other customers. Before its IPO in November 2021, Rivian claimed it could produce 50,000 vehicles in 2022. But this is what actually happened over the the past three and half years: Metric 2022 2023 2024 1H 2025 Vehicles produced 24,337 57,232 49,476 20,590 Vehicles delivered 20,332 50,122 51,579 19,301 Revenue $1.66 billion $4.43 billion $4.97 billion $2.54 billion Net loss ($6.75 billion) ($5.43 billion) ($4.75 billion) ($1.66 billion) Data source: Rivian. Rivian grappled with supply chain constraints in 2022. Its production and deliveries accelerated in 2023 as it overcame those challenges, but its expansion stalled out again in 2024 as rising interest rates chilled the high-end EV market, more competitors carved up the market, and it temporarily shut down its main plant to upgrade its production lines. For 2025, it expects to only deliver 40,000 to 46,000 vehicles. Analysts expect its revenue to rise 6% to $5.29 billion as it slightly narrows its net loss to $3.7 billion. It blames that slowdown on ongoing supply chain challenges, higher tariffs on raw materials and batteries, and another shutdown of its main plant as it gears up for the rollout of its smaller R2 SUV in 2026. That dim near-term outlook is weighing down Rivian's stock. Could Rivian be a deep value play? Rivian is struggling to scale up its business, but it expects the R2's launch to attract a much broader range of customers. It also plans to keep selling its regulatory credits to other automakers while expanding its software and services segment to boost its gross margin. At the end of the second quarter, it still had $8.52 billion in total liquidity -- including $7.51 billion in cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments. That cash should carry it through the launch of the R2 and help it ramp up production as the macro environment improves. If it can pull that off, analysts expect Rivian's revenue to rise 34% to $7.1 billion in 2026 and grow another 52% to $10.8 billion in 2027. They also expect it to gradually narrow its net losses. With an enterprise value of $13.2 billion, Rivian trades at just 2 times next year's sales. That makes it look like a value play compared to Tesla, which trades at 9 times next year's sales. Therefore, any positive news could cause Rivian's stock to double or triple -- and it would still be considered reasonably valued relative to its growth potential. That might be why insiders bought slightly more shares than they sold over the past 12 months. Amazon also hasn't sold any of its shares in Rivian since its IPO, and Rivian is still supported by other big investors like Porsche and the Saudi Arabian conglomerate Abdul Latif Jameel. Rivian is still a highly speculative stock, and there's no guarantee it can overcome its growing pains and evolve into another EV giant like Tesla. But if it gets its act together, expands its addressable market with the R2, and ramps up production, it could eventually command a much higher valuation. So if you have faith in Rivian's long-term growth plans, then it's worth accumulating while it trades so far below its 52-week high. Do the experts think Rivian Automotive is a buy right now?
