The Top 5 Analyst Questions From Rivian's Q2 Earnings Call
Rivian's second quarter was marked by a negative market reaction, reflecting investor concerns about profitability despite modest revenue growth. Management attributed the performance to lower production volumes caused by supply chain issues and shifts in trade policy, which led to weaker fixed cost absorption and higher unit costs. CFO Claire McDonough highlighted that, 'the largest driver…was driven by the lower production volume and therefore, the lack of fixed cost leverage,' while CEO RJ Scaringe emphasized ongoing cost reductions and strong uptake for recently launched products such as the R1 Quad-Motor. The company's software and services segment performed well, supported by its joint venture with Volkswagen Group and increasing contributions from remarketing and charging operations. Is now the time to buy RIVN? Find out in our full research report (it's free). Rivian (RIVN) Q2 CY2025 Highlights: Revenue: $1.30 billion vs analyst estimates of $1.28 billion (12.5% year-on-year growth, 2% beat) Adjusted EPS: -$0.80 vs analyst expectations of -$0.64 (25.4% miss) Adjusted EBITDA: -$667 million vs analyst estimates of -$513.5 million (-51.2% margin, 29.9% miss) EBITDA guidance for the full year is -$2.13 billion at the midpoint, below analyst estimates of -$1.84 billion Operating Margin: -85.5%, up from -114% in the same quarter last year Sales Volumes fell 22.7% year on year (9.1% in the same quarter last year) Market Capitalization: $14.52 billion While we enjoy listening to the management's commentary, our favorite part of earnings calls are the analyst questions. Those are unscripted and can often highlight topics that management teams would rather avoid or topics where the answer is complicated. Here is what has caught our attention. Our Top 5 Analyst Questions From Rivian's Q2 Earnings Call Dan Levy (Barclays) asked about cost reductions from R1 to R2 and the company's confidence in achieving the targeted savings. CEO RJ Scaringe and COO Javier Varela cited contractually secured supplier agreements and design simplifications as key drivers, confirming a 50% reduction in bill of materials costs for R2. Adam Jonas (Morgan Stanley) inquired about the status of the $6.6 billion Department of Energy loan for the Georgia plant. CFO Claire McDonough explained that no funds have been drawn yet since construction has not started, but the company intends to utilize the loan as site development progresses. Mark Delaney (Goldman Sachs) questioned the sharp increase in cost of goods sold per vehicle and potential pricing impacts from the loss of EV tax credits. McDonough pointed to lower production volumes and warranty costs while Scaringe maintained that R1's market share leadership supports stable pricing, even with incentive changes. Ronald Jewsikow (Guggenheim Securities) asked how policy changes might alter R2 or R3 pricing, cost, or capacity decisions, and about preorder volumes. Scaringe declined to share specific preorder numbers but reiterated confidence in R2's product-market fit and scalability for both U.S. and European markets. Emmanuel Rosner (Wolfe Research) pressed for clarity on software and services revenue growth and its role in EBITDA targets. McDonough emphasized the importance of remarketing, service infrastructure, and the Volkswagen joint venture, noting these areas are expected to be significant contributors through 2027. Catalysts in Upcoming Quarters In upcoming quarters, the StockStory team will closely monitor (1) the progress and timeline of R2's manufacturing validation and supplier ramp, (2) Rivian's ability to manage higher input costs from tariffs and policy changes while preserving gross margin, and (3) the scaling of its software and services business, especially the Volkswagen joint venture and expansion of the charging and remarketing platforms. The effectiveness of cost optimization measures and developments in autonomy features will also be key indicators of execution. Rivian currently trades at $11.93, down from $12.18 just before the earnings. Is there an opportunity in the stock?See for yourself in our full research report (it's free).

Rivian announces new Atlanta headquarters
This story was originally published on Automotive Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Automotive Dive newsletter. Rivian is expanding its presence in Georgia with a new East Coast headquarters in Atlanta, the company announced on its website July 17. The new office is currently under construction and slated to open later this year. Its workers will support the battery electric vehicle maker's operations in the state, including its new $5 billion factory near Social Circle, which will have an annual production capacity of 400,000 vehicles when fully built out. 'We are excited to establish our East Coast head office in Atlanta,' Rivian founder and CEO RJ Scaringe said in a statement. 'Atlanta embodies so much that makes Georgia great—top talent, exceptional creativity, and a desire to always be moving forward.' Rivian expects the Atlanta office to initially employ 100 people when it opens, according to the announcement, although the company didn't list specific jobs. After the site is fully built, it will house around 500 workers. The automaker's primary headquarters is in Irvine, California. The opening of an East Coast headquarters follows Rivian's announcement in late November that it would resume construction of its Georgia factory. In January, the automaker received final approval for a $6.6 billion loan from the Department of Energy, which the company said would help restart the stalled project. In March 2024, Rivian announced it was halting construction of its Georgia factory in order to save money, opting instead to transfer production of forthcoming R2 SUV to its plant in Normal, Illinois, to get the vehicle to market faster. In an Aug. 5 call with analysts, Rivian CFO Claire Rauh McDonough said the company had not yet started construction on its Georgia factory, which prevents it from drawing funds from its DOE loan. However, she noted that Rivian recognizes the 'attractive cost of capital' that the loan—which is available through September 2028—provides. 'So we do intend to draw on that loan as we look to expand our manufacturing base in Georgia,' McDonough said. Rivian has said it plans to resume construction on the plant in 2026 and start production by 2028. Recommended Reading Flexibility key in tariff turmoil: Toyota, Rivian execs

Rivian's Developing New Tech To Make Its EVs More Agile
While the automaker won't discuss future product, there's a job listing outlining what's on the roadmap posted publicly online right now. Tipped off by the crew at RivianForums, Rivian has a job listing for a Sr. Mechanical Design & Release Engineer specifically for steering systems. The job listing isn't the interesting bit, as Rivian's a startup and hiring people to develop its future products at a rapid rate. But listed in the job description are two interesting features not existing in today's R1T or R1S: steer-by-wire and rear-wheel steering. The former, which removes the mechanical connection between the steering system and the wheels, saves weight, saves money in production and materials, but adds development and engineering hurdles. The Tesla Cybertruck has steer-by-wire, among other things. Rear-wheel steering would enable a Rivian to shrink its turning radius, which in turn would make the vehicle more agile in parking lots, around clover leaves, and take tighter turns off pavement as well. The feature, seen on the GMC Hummer EV, Chevrolet Silverado EV, and quite a few high-end luxury vehicles, would enable Rivian to make the larger R1T and R1S feel smaller than they are while driving. A Rivian spokesperson told The Drive, 'We cannot comment on any speculation about future protect.' Though, who's speculating? Rivian posted this in a public job posting for the world to see. The Rivian R1S and R1T were refreshed heavily, though they don't completely look like it, for 2025. The second-generation Quad arrived for 2026. It's unlikely rear-wheel steering or steer-by-wire will be integrated until the next refresh or heavy update, which likely will arrive around 2028. But it's quite possible steer-by-wire could be integrated into the upcoming $45,000 smaller R2, which arrives in 2026. Including steer-by-wire would lower the build cost, though increase development complexity. Either way, while unclear when these technologies will arrive in a Rivian, it's clear they are on the road map. If you're in the job market, have engineering chops and the record to prove it, Rivian might want to talk with you. Got a tip about future product via a job listing?
