These agreements are part of Lucid's strategy to bolster its financial position for general corporate purposes, including potential capital expenditures and working capital. The company's revenue for the year ended December 31, 2023, was $595.271 million, a slight decrease of 2% from the previous year's $608.181 million. The cost of revenue, however, increased by 18% to $1,936.066 million due to higher manufacturing and sales costs for the Lucid Air vehicles and inventory write-downs. Lucid's operating expenses also rose, with research and development costs up by 14% and selling, general, and administrative expenses by 9%. The company's business development has been marked by the delivery of the Lucid Air to customers since October 2021 and plans to launch the Lucid Gravity, a luxury SUV, in late 2024, followed by a midsize platform in late 2026. Lucid has also entered into a strategic technology arrangement with Aston Martin, providing access to Lucid's powertrain and battery technologies. Additionally, Lucid LLC has an EV purchase agreement with the Government of Saudi Arabia for up to 100,000 vehicles over ten years. Looking ahead, Lucid Group anticipates further capital expenditures of approximately $1.5 billion for fiscal year 2024 to support its commercialization and growth objectives, including expanding manufacturing capacity and retail studios, developing new products, and other business growth initiatives.
