Faraday Future Marks Fourth Anniversary with a Reversal in Both Business and Capital Fundamentals

Since its successful listing in 2021, FF has remained focused on disruptive innovation in the intelligent electric mobility ecosystem and is now advancing from the AIEV era to the next-generation EAI EV era.

Following the return of the founding team—including Founder YT Jia—in April this year, the Company has implemented a comprehensive "Ten Punch Combo" transformations, achieving a qualitative leap across key areas such as product development and delivery, manufacturing, supply chain, brand building, organizational governance, and system and capability buildup.

On July 17, FF successfully unveiled in Downtown Los Angeles the FX Super One, alongside the Super EAI F.A.C.E. (Front AI Communication Ecosystem), and the FF EAI Embodied AI Agent 6x4 Architecture. The debut of the FX Super One made a striking market impression, fundamentally redefining the traditional luxury executive mobility experience long dominated by models such as the Cadillac Escalade.

Compared to where the Company stood at the time of its IPO four years ago, FF has now achieved a dual turnaround in both business and capital fundamentals. The Company has established a strategic framework centered around dual home markets and dual DNA in U.S. and China, while also deploying its "Third Pole" in Middle East. Through consistent delivery on its promises, more transparent communications, and a proactive and pragmatic corporate culture, FF has regained a vote of confidence from its stockholders.

Since its debut, the FX Super One has attracted significant market attention, with over 10,000 paid pre-orders from both B2B and B2C customers. FF continues to refine its Co-Creation Ecosystem Online Direct Sales system, expand its multi-channel sales strategy, and elevate brand influence. The Company's "B2B2C" co-creation ecosystem model now covers five core sectors: FX Par (Partners), car rental companies, live e-commerce MCN agencies, real estate brokerages, and home office industry.

On July 21, the Company also announced a strategic partnership with HabitTrade, a global multi-market brokerage and digital asset infrastructure platform. Through this collaboration, FF seeks to build an integrated ecosystem combining EAI mobility, Web3, blockchain technology, crypto, and stablecoin applications. This initiative aims to bridge Web2 and Web3, connect on-chain and off-chain value flows, and expand the convergence between the real and virtual economies—creating new value for both users and the industry.

In addition, the Company recently completed a new round of financing commitment totaling $105 million, which is expected to nearly cover the launch requirements of the FX Super One. Global institutional investor BlackRock has increased its holdings in FFAI for four consecutive quarters, reaching 5.39 million shares, signaling growing recognition and confidence among top-tier capital in the outlook of both FF and FX.

Initial Victory in the Counterattack Against Potential Illegal Short Selling; FF Reaffirms Its Commitment to Protecting Stockholder Interests

Since the appointment of Founder YT Jia as FF's Co-CEO, the Company has achieved initial success in its efforts to combat potential illegal short selling. The Company previously issued a public update on the identified illegal short selling and online market manipulation targeting FFAI, noting that certain individuals and online accounts involved had issued public apologies and taken down all content suspected of contributing to such manipulative activities.

Recently, the Company identified additional indications of potential illegal short selling and the deliberate dissemination of false or misleading information aimed at disrupting the market. FF has issued a legal letter to the parties involved and reserves all rights to pursue legal remedies.

On the occasion of its fourth anniversary as a publicly listed company, FF reaffirms its unwavering commitment to the "Stockholders First" philosophy and its effort to continue to closely monitor the market for signs of potential illegal short selling and will take all necessary legal and regulatory actions to defend the rights and interests of its stockholders. Any attempts to undermine FFAI or harm investor interests will be met with appropriate consequences.

FF also calls on regulators and the broader investment community to remain vigilant against such bad-faith efforts to distort capital markets. The Company urges collective resistance against the malicious attacks and defamatory campaigns launched by irresponsible entities targeting innovative enterprises.
