Electrovaya Receives the Make More in America Deal of the Year Award at Export-Import Bank of the United States' 2025 Annual Conference
TORONTO, ON / ACCESS Newswire / April 30, 2025 / Electrovaya Inc. (NASDAQ:ELVA)(TSX:ELVA), a leading lithium-ion battery technology and manufacturing company, announces that it has received the Make More in America Deal of the Year Award today at the Export-Import Bank of the United States' (EXIM) 2025 Annual Conference in recognition of the company's demonstrated commitment to onshoring critical lithium ion battery manufacturing to the U.S.
With manufacturing in Jamestown, New York, Electrovaya is a dynamic business, specializing in the development and manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries for a variety of applications. In November 2024, the Board of Directors of EXIM approved a nearly $51 million direct loan to support the interior construction of a manufacturing facility and procure equipment for lithium-ion battery cell and module production lines that will aid in the company's increased production capacity. In addition to supporting an estimated 290 U.S. jobs, the transaction will also see the reshoring of a critical part of the production cycle from overseas competitors.
"EXIM remains committed to the expansion of domestic exports and rebuilding of a resilient stateside critical minerals supply chain," said Acting President and Chairman Jim Cruse. "The financing we were able to provide Electrovaya further underscores our dedication to supporting American businesses while enhancing U.S. manufacturing and reinforcing the country's economic security."
"EXIM's support has been instrumental in accelerating Electrovaya's growth in the U.S. and to support the company's domestic manufacturing plans. Through EXIM's support, Electrovaya will be reshoring considerable production from Asia," said Raj DasGupta, Chief Executive Officer of Electrovaya. "The company is witnessing significant interest for its U.S.-manufactured products and expects to quickly ramp up production. The financing support enables us to expand battery manufacturing, scale production, and bring our safe, long-lasting lithium-ion technology to more customers." The expansion of the manufacturing facility will allow Electrovaya to produce battery cells and modules which are currently produced in China, and therefore also falls under EXIM's China and Transformational Exports Program.

S&P 500 ends lower; traders focus on Middle East tension
STORY: U.S. stocks ended lower on Wednesday, with the Dow unchanged, the S&P 500 slipping a quarter of one percent, and the Nasdaq losing half of one percent. Wall Street erased modest gains as tensions flared in the Middle East. Sources said the U.S. was preparing a partial evacuation of its embassy in Iraq, after a senior Iranian official said Tehran will strike U.S. bases in the region if nuclear negotiations fail and if conflict arises with the United States. Investors also awaited more details on trade talks between the U.S. and China after President Donald Trump said a deal was (quote) "done," with Beijing to supply magnets and rare earth minerals. But amid the trade developments and geopolitical tensions, BMO Chief Market Strategist Carol Schleif says the stock market continues to show resilience. 'It's clearly a market that wants to look through the short term, whether it's exhausted or not, but it wants to look through short term noise and and stick with the long term fundamentals. And the fact is is the fundamentals keep coming through solidly. You know people thought we'd see more inflation out of today's CPI report and it's not being passed on. I think companies are either- They either stocked up, they're figuring out how to absorb some of it or and or they understand that consumers are just the consumers, have had it with inflation. And so, there's a big risk to passing it on.' The latest data on consumer prices showed they increased only marginally in May, while economists expect inflation to accelerate in the coming months due to the Trump administration's import tariffs. Stocks on the move Wednesday included GameStop which fell more than 5% after the video game retailer reported a decline in first-quarter revenue. And shares of Starbucks added more than 4% after its CEO told the Financial Times that it received 'a lot of interest' for its China business.
